BOARD OF DIRECTORS’ REPORT ON OPERATIONS FOR THE CO NSOLIDATED AND
PARENT COMPANY FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT 31 DECEMBER 2015
Dear shareholders,
The economic and financial performance of the TREVI Group in the 2015 financial year was
characterised by differing trends in the two sectors that make up the Group. The Special Foundations
segment, comprising Trevi and Soilmec, had higher total revenues in 2015 compared to 2014:
revenues rose by Euro 123.06 million from Euro 703.44 million to Euro 826.50 million (+17.5%).
There was also an increase of approximately Euro 5 million in the operating result, which went from
Euro 31.95 million to Euro 36.93 million (+15.8%) although the margin on revenues remained
unchanged at 4.5%.
Net debt fell by Euro 38.66 million from Euro 245.55 million to Euro 206.90 million. The net debt/
EBITDA ratio was 2.40x.
The Special Foundations segment closed 2015 with an order portfolio of approximately Euro 660
million and this figure will grow significantly in the first few months of 2016 following the acquisition
of the contract for the initial maintenance of the Mosul Dam in Iraq worth Euro 270 million. The Oil &
Gas segment had a performance that was diametrically opposed to that of the Special Foundations
segment. Continued uncertainty on how long the increase in the oil price will last, despite the
significant rise in recent weeks, puts in doubt the investment plans of our clients. The two divisions in
this segment chose to focus on national oil companies, which still have investment plans for drill rigs
and new wells, as well as for the maintenance of existing rigs. This strategy helped the Oil & Gas to
defend its market position and limited the decline in revenues to a modest -3.5% or Euro 20 million,
from Euro 567.74 million to Euro 547.62 million.
There was a negative effect on profitability from the transport and installation on a drilling platform of
an offshore rig designed and manufactured by Drillmec, which took place in the second quarter of the
financial year under review and which has already been reported.
6
The plant started production in October 2015.
An exhaustive report on this event was given in the Financial Statements for the first semester of 2015,
which provides further details. However, it should be noted that the contract for an offshore drill rig
that included transport and installation on the drilling platform was a first for Drillmec, a company
whose normal operations consist primarily of onshore oil rigs. Many of the higher contract costs
incurred in 2015 were linked to the transport and installation of the offshore rig and these were caused
by unexpected and singular events that could not reasonably have been foreseen by the management of
Drillmec and of the Group. The major costs deriving from these unexpected and unforeseeable events
could not be passed on to the final client under the terms of the contract. This event was unique and
will not reoccur as, in future, the Group does not intend to assume the contractual risk of installing
plant on offshore platforms and will only do so at the request of the client and under contracts that
provide for the total repayment of any costs incurred and therefore with margins that are certain. The
operation, which was not part of the normal activities of the Oil & Gas Division, led to an operating
loss of Euro 98.24 million that was taken in the second quarter of the financial year.
Excluding this event, the Division had an operating loss of Euro 21 million, down 4% year-on-year. At
year-end 2015, the order portfolio of the Oil & Gas Division was approximately Euro 293 million.
As a result of the above, the TREVI Group had total revenues of Euro 1,342.3 million in the 2015
financial year, a gross operating profit of Euro 8.9 million, a negative operating result of Euro 87.9
million and a negative net result of Euro 115.2 million. Net debt rose from approximately Euro 379
million to Euro 420 million.

The gross operating profit of Euro 8.9 million compared to a figure of Euro 126.4 million in the
previous financial year. After depreciation and amortisation of Euro 63 million and provisions of Euro
33.8 million, the operating result was negative for Euro 87.9 million; in 2014, the Group had a net
operating profit of Euro 62.6 million (5% of total revenues).
7 Total revenues include the following items: revenues from sales and services and other operating revenues, excluding those of a non-recurring nature. 8 Value of production includes the following items: revenues from sales and services, increases in property, plant and equipment for internal use, other operating revenues, changes in inventories of finished products and of semi-finished products. 9 The entry, Consumption of raw materials and external services, includes the following items: raw materials and consumables, changes in inventory of raw materials, ancillary products, consumables and goods, and other miscellaneous operating costs not including other operating costs (Note 28). 10 For further details on the entry Other operating costs, see Note 28 of the Consolidated Income Statement 11 Value added is the sum of the value of production, raw material costs and external services, and other operating costs. 12 EBITDA (gross operating profit) is an economic indicator not defined by IFRS but adopted by TREVI Group beginning with the Consolidated Financial Statements at 31 December 2005. EBITDA is a measure used by Trevi’s management to monitor and evaluate the operating performance of the Group. Management believes that EBITDA is an important measurement of Group performance insofar as it is not influenced by the volatility generated by the various factors used in determining taxable income, by the amount and nature of capital employed and by depreciation policies. At the current date (in the absence of more detail concerning the evolution of alternative corporate performance measurement criteria), EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation) is defined by TREVI Group as profit/loss for the period gross of depreciation and amortisation, of tangible and intangible assets, provisions and impairment, financial revenue and expenses, and taxes. 13 EBIT (operating profit) is an economic indicator not defined by IFRS but adopted by TREVI Group beginning with the Consolidated Financial Statements at 31 December 2005. EBIT is one of the measures used by the TREVI management to monitor and evaluate the operating performance of the Group. Management believes that EBIT is an important measurement of Group performance insofar as it not influenced by the volatility generated by the impact of various factors used in determining taxable income, the amount and nature of capital employed and by depreciation policies. EBIT (earnings before interest and taxes) is defined by TREVI Group as profit/losses for the period gross of financial revenue and expenses, and taxes. 14 The entry, financial income/ (expenses), is the sum of the following items: financial revenue (Note 30) and (financial expenses) (Note 31).

Net financial costs were Euro 29.6 million, a decrease of approximately Euro 2.1 million compared to
the previous financial year. Net exchange rate losses were Euro 13.7 million. The result before taxes
was a loss of Euro 131.8 million (profit before taxes of Euro 35.3 million in the previous financial
year).
The net loss attributable to the shareholders of the Parent Company, after Euro 16.3 million of current,
deferred and pre-paid taxes and a negative figure for non-controlling interests of Euro 0.3 million, was
Euro 115.2 million (net profit of Euro 24.4 million in the previous financial year).
The breakdown of total revenues by geographic region shows that revenues generated in Italy were
approximately 5.5%, a decrease of 39% compared to 2014. Revenues generated in Europe fell 35% to
Euro 73.5 million. The percentage of revenues generated in the Middle East and Asia increased 30%,
rising from Euro 284.5 million in 2014 to Euro 370 million in the financial year under review, and
accounted for approximately 27.6% of total revenues. There was also a 78.4% year-on-year increase in
revenues from Africa, which accounted for approximately 21.7% of total revenues. In South America,
there was a decrease of Euro 52.4 million in revenues from Euro 372 million in 2014 to Euro 320

which Euro 221.7 million was contract work in progress. Fixed assets totalled Euro 493 million
(+4.1%). Group net equity decreased by approximately Euro 84 million (-12.9%).
The net loss generated by the Group contributed Euro 115.2 million to this figure but there was a
positive impact from the increase in the translation reserve (approximately Euro 42.2 million), mainly
due to the appreciation of the US dollar (and of currencies linked to the US dollar, in particular the
currencies of the countries of the Arabian Gulf) against the Euro.

Euro 123.1 million rising from Euro 267 million to Euro 390 million. Total net debt, including treasury
shares, rose by approximately Euro 40.5 million in 2015.

Free Cash Flow22 was Euro 10.2 million (in 2014 it was negative for Euro 107 million) and was
affected by Euro 68.7 million of changes in net working capital for and by approximately Euro 58
million of investments in tangible and intangible assets net of exchange rate translation effects.
Investments
Gross investments in property, plant and equipment by the TREVI Group were approximately Euro 82
million in the 2015 financial year due to the acquisition of plant and machinery for the Oil & Gas and
Special Foundations Divisions.
The most significant investments were those made in the Middle East, Latin America and Africa.
Divestments totalled Euro 65.8 million at historical cost for assets almost entirely depreciated.
Depreciation and amortisation of tangible and intangible assets totalled Euro 63 million. The net value
of Euro 399.9 million for property, plant and equipment at 31 December 2015 had a positive impact
from translation differences of Euro 20.4 million caused by the difference between historic exchange
rates and those prevailing at 31 December 2015.
Research and Development
The research and development efforts of Drillmec were concentrated on providing a range of
innovative products to the market that focused on automation and also on a range of accessories and
services that would generate considerably higher average profitability than that realised on the sale of
single units of plant and equipment.
The research and development activity of Soilmec in 2015 had the following objectives:
- to manage, promote and protect the intellectual property and know-how of the company;
- to analyse new technologies and carry out technical reviews of existing technologies;
- to develop 2.0 electrical plant on the existing equipment range
22 “Free Cash Flow” is not defined by the IFRS but has been used by the TREVI Group since the Consolidated Financial Statements at 31 December 2005;
it is a Statement of Financial Position indicator calculated by subtracting the taxes paid in the period, provisions made, depreciation and amortisation, the
changes in net working capital and the gross investments for the period from the EBIT for the financial period.

As part of the first point mentioned above, several new patents were registered in 2015 that cover the
technological areas that are of major interest to the company. Several patents that had already been
registered prior to 2015 were granted during the year.
As regards the second point above, several technical and economic feasibility studies were carried out
for new equipment and highly innovative technical solutions. One of the most important technical and
economic feasibility studies was on a mixing trencher; studies were also made for an electro mill and a
battery-run micropile.
As regards the third point above, an initial study was carried out for a 2.0 electrical plant on an SR-45
drilling rig.

In addition to plant and equipment hire, the activities carried out by the Parent Company on behalf of
subsidiaries included planning, research and development, operational and administrative management
support, human resources and personnel services, IT services and corporate integrated management
software, management of Group communications, and all services connected to its main activity as the
industrial parent company of the TREVI Group (management of investments and financing
agreements with subsidiaries).
The fall in income from investments (Euro 0.328 million in 2015, compared to Euro 1.177 million in
15
the 2014 financial year, a decrease of Euro 0.848 million) was due to the dividend payment from
Petreven S.p.A., which and was partly offset by an increase in interest received from financing
agreements between the Company and its subsidiaries (Euro 18.836 million in the 2015 financial year
compared to Euro 14.041 million in the previous financial year, an increase of Euro 4.796 million);
the loans given to subsidiaries carry interest rates in line with market rates. The year-on-year increase
in this item was due to the increase in loans made during the year and to the use of the financial flows
from the share capital increase. The share capital increase was completed in November 2014 and,
therefore, only impacted the accounts for a limited period in the 2014 financial year.
Net exchange rate gains in 2015 were Euro 2.484 million compared to Euro 2.818 million in the
previous financial year. The exchange rate gains were mainly unrealised gains and it was therefore
decided to make a provision, in accordance with the accounting standards and enacted law and net of
the provision made in the previous financial year, to a reserve that cannot be distributed until the gains
are realised, as described in the Report on Operations.
There was also an increase in the tax payable by the Company.
In the financial period under review, gross investments in property and plant included Euro 8.171
million to acquire an industrial complex with offices and services located in the Municipality of
Podenzano (Piacenza) that is rented out to the subsidiary Drillmec S.p.A.. This figure also included
plant and machinery worth Euro 7.625 million mainly for special foundations equipment.
As regards directly-held investments, there was an increase in the investment in the subsidiary
Drillmec S.p.A., which manufactures and sells drilling equipment for the extraction and exploration of
hydrocarbons and water. This was for a future share capital increase of Euro 90.000 million approved
in the financial year by the company to further its corporate activity and also to strengthen its financial
position so that it can subscribe to the future share capital increases of its subsidiary Drillmec Inc.
(USA).
Impairment tests were carried out on the carrying value of the main investments and, in particular,
those with a carrying value higher than their net equity. No indications of impairment were found. To
carry out the impairment tests, the forecast cash flows for the 2016-2018 period in the 2016 budget
16
approved by the Board of Directors on 16 December 2015 were used as were the financial forecasts for
2017 and 2018 prepared by the management based on the assumptions in the budget.
The Shareholders’ Meeting of 30 April 2015 approved a distribution of profits equating to a dividend
of Euro 0.07 per share through the use of the extraordinary reserve for Euro 3.965 million and of
retained profits for Euro 1.003 million, with an ex-dividend date of 6 July 2015 and payment from 8
July 2015 for a total amount of Euro 11.535 million. At 31 December 2015, the dividends approved by
the Company had been fully distributed.
The Shareholders’ Meeting of 30 April 2015, in continuation of the approval given at previous
Shareholders’ Meetings, renewed the authority given to the Board of Directors to purchase and sell up
to a maximum of 2,000,000 treasury shares. This authority was exercised to acquire 75,600 treasury
shares in the 2015 financial year.
Guarantees given to credit institutions for non-current loans and for commercial guarantees received
are centralised in the Parent Company; these totalled Euro 505.493 million at 31 December 2015
compared to Euro 310.720 million in the previous financial year, an increase of Euro 194.773 million
mainly due to the use of non-current credit lines by the subsidiaries.
Guarantees given to insurance companies totalled Euro 37.501 million at 31 December 2015 compared
to Euro 60.241 million in the previous financial year, a decrease of Euro 22.740 million; these
guarantees are reduced in proportion to the amount of work still outstanding and are primarily given
for projects in the USA.
The Explanatory Notes to the Financial Statements provide detailed information on individual entries
in the Financial Statements. Note 13 provides a reconciliation of the results for the period and the net
equity of the Group with the figures of the Parent Company (DEM/6064293 of 28 July 2006).
Further details on the composition of the Board of Directors and the Board of Statutory Auditors is
given in other sections of these Financial Statements and in the Report on Corporate Governance.
The Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 January 2015 renewed the Board of Directors for the three years
2015 – 2016 – 2017 and, on the same date, the Board of Directors allocated the executive posts and
powers within the Company. The same Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 January 2015 also appointed the
17
Standing Statutory Auditor Ms Milena Motta and the Supplementary Statutory Auditor Ms Valeria
Vegni until the approval of the Financial Statements at 31 December 2015.
During the 2015 financial year, the Director Ms Guadiana Giusti resigned for personal reasons
effective from 14 May 2015. On the same date, 14 May 2015, the Board of Directors, having received
a favourable opinion from the Committee for Appointments and Remuneration and the opinion of the
Board of Statutory Auditors, co-opted Ms Marta Dassù to the Board of Directors in accordance with
Article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code.

Special Foundations Division
The Special Foundations Division comprising Trevi S.p.A. and Soilmec S.p.A. and their subsidiaries
and associate companies had total revenues of Euro 826.5 million, an increase of Euro 123.1 million
(+17.5%) compared to the figure for the preceding financial year. Value added was 30.3% of revenues.
The gross operating profit was Euro 86.3 million. After depreciation and amortisation of Euro 43.7
million and provisions of Euro 5.6 million, the operating profit was Euro 37 million, approximately
4.5% of revenues.
The Americas
In 2015, the revenues of the Trevi division in North America were Euro 76.2 million. The
extraordinary maintenance work on the Wolf Creek Dam in Kentucky was completed and was
replaced by work on the Bolivar Dam in Ohio and by several important civil engineering contracts in
New England and Washington DC. These include “One Dalton”, a 65-storey tower for a total height of
18
230 metres; and a project to build a self-hardening grout diaphragm wall at Lower Wood River in
Illinois, which involves construction of plastic diaphragm walls to stabilise and waterproof the faults
along the Mississippi River and Wood River Creek. New commercial opportunities for dam repairs
materialised at the end of 2015 and should prove promising for 2016.
In Latin America, the Trevi division had contracts in Argentina, Venezuela, Colombia, Brazil and
Panama for a total of approximately Euro 105.2 million. In Argentina, several contracts are almost
complete, including the Vuelta de Obligado thermoelectric power plant in Rosario and several
contracts for harbour jetties along the Parana River (including Don Pedro, Puerto de Barcazas Noble in
Santa Fè). The division also won environmental contracts in Buenos Aires (the Riachuelo hydraulic
land reclamation project) for Lot 1 and Lot 3 that are currently in the deployment stage and scheduled
to start in the second quarter of 2016. Following a strong marketing effort in Peru and Chile, there is a
strong possibility that some contracts will be finalised within the current financial year. In Panama, the
Trevi division is involved in the final phases of the consolidation and foundation work for the Tercer
Juego de Esclusas of the new Panama Canal, which is due to be inaugurated in May 2016; in special
foundations work on Line 2 of the Metro; and on projects for Port Rodman on the Pacific entrance to
the canal. The company is also involved in some minor piling, micropiling and anchoring works for
buildings. There was also a positive trend in the contracts won in Colombia where the company is
working on two main projects: the first is the Pedregal Business Center in Bogota and the second is to
construct foundations on sunken piles for the Pumarejo Bridge at Barranquilla on the River Magdalena
on behalf of the Spanish company, Sacyr. It also expects to win contracts in the second semester for
foundations on sunken piles for the 4G projects (fourth generation motorway infrastructure). In
Ecuador, road projects in Guayaquil were completed in 2015. In Venezuela the work at Puerto la Cruz
continues (expanding an oil refinery), as does the contract to waterproof and build diaphragm walls for
the dam on the River Cuira for Hydrocapital. The division continues to work on the Metro los Teques,
on the Santa Lucia-Kempis motorway, and to build diaphragm walls, install sunken pilings and tie-
beam works in the residential sector in Caracas. In Brazil, the associate company, Trevi Geos suffered
19
a slowdown in activity due to the political and economic crisis in the construction sector.
Europe
The Copenhagen Metro Team completed the special foundations and consolidation work for the
CITYRINGEN METRO PROJECT. The contract was for special foundations for the seventeen
stations on the new stretch of the underground system. In 2015, investments were made to win
contracts in North Europe, which should lead to an increase in revenues from this region in the current
financial year.
Italy
The important contract for the new oil harbour in the Port of Naples, currently the most important port
works being carried out in Italy, is proving to be a real technological success. Work is almost complete
on the Metro C in Rome to connect the station of San Giovanni through a double-barrel tunnel running
just a few metres below Line A of the Metro, which was kept running whilst the work was carried out.
This complex work required highly sophisticated technology (ground consolidation through artificial
ground freezing, horizontal directional drilling) that was under the full control of Trevi. The further
extension of the work in Palermo for SIS also provided positive results. As part of the marketing effort
there was a focus in 2015 in participating in public tenders and the number of offers made tripled
compared to the number in the previous year.
Africa
The Trevi division had 2015 revenues of approximately Euro 120 million in Africa. In West Africa it
is constructing the foundations for new railway lines and new sea ports.
In Algeria, the Group continued to work with its long-standing clients and won new contracts in the
railway sector and in consolidation work. Its long experience of the local market, based on almost 20
years of continuous activity in the country, has given it recognition and has resulted in its winning
important contracts that have consolidated its leadership position in the Algerian market.
The sectors in which it is mainly involved are those of large infrastructure projects both for the major
20
road networks of the country (the Tizi Ouzou motorway and the East-West motorway) and the
hydroelectric sector (the Djedra Souk Ahras Dam and the Boukhroufa a’ El Tarf Dam).
However, its main presence is in underground railway infrastructure where it has been the undisputed
market leader since 2004 and has been involved in all the main stretches of the underground.
In 2015 the company won the contract for all the foundation works of the “MC1 Ain Naja – Baraky”
stretch of the underground and those of the “MC2 El Harrach – Airport” stretch for a total amount of
approximately Euro 100 million.
The two stretches will cover almost 12 km and will have 11 stations, 13 ventilation shafts, and one
viaduct. The work, which began in 2015 and will continue until 2019, should generate very positive
revenues and profitability.
Work has also commenced on transport infrastructure projects in Egypt, which are considered strategic
for the economic development of the country. The contract is for the construction of structural
diaphragms - one of the most highly developed technologies of the TREVI Group. The reinforced
concrete diaphragm structures are underground walls built from the surface and used to assist
excavations, are part of the foundations or to contain groundwater flows. Diaphragm walls are a very
important part of underground construction as they can be built without causing too much disturbance
to the surrounding areas.
Middle East and Asia
In 2015, the Trevi division generated revenues of approximately Euro 185 million in these regions.
Important contracts were finalised in Qatar and in the United Arab Emirates following investments in
the maritime transport sector and in the metro network. In Saudi Arabia, the division worked on the
foundations of several lines of the Riyadh underground system.
The Trevi Division also won a contract in Metro Manila in the Philippines to build the special
foundations of an urban viaduct with six traffic lanes and approximately fourteen kilometres long. It
will also be involved in building the special foundations for the “Empire East Kasara” residential
project in the Philippines. This comprises several residential towers with luxury apartments and
21
represents a symbiosis between modern architecture and nature.
Soilmec division
Soilmec sought to maintain its market share and focused in particular on those areas that, in recent
years, have offered the greatest potential for growth. It also focused attention on its key financial
indicators and management introduced strategies to reduce inventories and working capital. There was
an improvement in the net financial position compared to the previous financial year. Total revenues
were Euro 251.9 million compared to Euro 231.3 million in the preceding financial year (+9%).
Oil & Gas Division
This division had revenues of Euro 547.6 million in 2015 compared to Euro 567.7 million in the
previous financial year, a year-on-year decrease of 3.5%.
It generated a gross operating loss of Euro 77.6 million and an operating loss of Euro 124.8 million.
The net financial position improved by approximately Euro 31.3 million compared to the figure at 31
December 2014.
Drillmec Drillmec had total revenues of approximately Euro 403.6 million in 2015 compared to Euro 426.8
million in the preceding financial year (-5.4%). In 2015, the company continued work on the contracts
acquired in Algeria, Saudi Arabia and Russia. The company reached the budget forecasts in terms of
revenues but the strong competition meant that it failed to reach adequate or expected levels of
profitability. In 2015, the company continued to research and manufacture new product lines,
components and specialised services, which should ensure that margins are maintained or even
improve in the future even were sales volumes to decline. The company continues to hope that the
sanctions imposed on Russia will be lifted; in the last two years these have made it extremely difficult
to operate in this important region and have also had repercussions for the subsidiary Seismotekhnika
in Belarus. The order portfolio for 2016 covers part of forecast 2016 revenues and it is hoped that some
22
contracts, currently at an advanced stage of negotiations, will be finalised and will use available
production and cover the budget for the year.
Petreven
2015 proved a problematic year due to the rapid decline in the oil price and the consequent
deterioration in the market outlook for this sector. Downgrades to the announced investments of the
oil companies caused significant discontinuity compared to previous financial years for the
performance of oil drilling companies. In this deteriorating market environment characterised by
strong competition the main financial and economic figures of the foreign subsidiaries suffered a sharp
decrease in the period under review compared to previous financial years. This, and the lower order
portfolio, which nevertheless provides significant visibility, confirms the ongoing pressure on margins
and results. As the operating sub-holding in the drilling sector, the company is trying to ensure that its
subsidiaries regain profitability by using its competitive advantages, which include its strong client
relationships and equipment with cutting edge technology, and to guarantee them economic and
financial stability despite the difficult environment that is unlikely to be resolved in the short-term.
The company is aware of the necessity to create the competences required to maintain its technological
and management leadership in this difficult period for the sector. It is essential to focus on its human
capital and develop projects that go from mapping competences to strengthening its performance
management systems and introducing incentive plans that will create the required professionalism.
The operating activities of the subsidiaries meant that average plant capacity utilisation was 74% (92%
in 2013) and 283 wells were drilled. Revenues declined 18% to USD 156.2 million compared to the
figure for the previous financial year (USD 191.1 million). Argentina was once again the country that
generated most revenues with USD 98.3 million (63% of revenues), followed by Venezuela with USD
30.3 million, Chile with USD 16.9 million, Peru with USD 8.5 million and Colombia with USD 1.3
million.
23
The order portfolio fell sharply and at 31 December 2015 was USD 124 million compared to USD 228
million at year-end 2014. Argentina, due entirely to the orders from YPF, accounts for 59% of the
order portfolio; Chile accounts for a further 30%.
The subsidiaries continue to operate in South America on behalf of the oil majors and National Oil
Companies. The Petreven division operates seventeen oil drill rigs: nine in Argentina, two in
Venezuela, four in Chile, two in Peru and one in Colombia. One plant belonging to a third-party was
also used in Chile.
Argentina
In Argentina, work is being carried out on behalf of the oil company YPF using seven drill rigs. In
May and October, two drill rigs operating in this country completed their contracts.
Venezuela
In Venezuela, work continued with two drill rigs for Petrosinovensa (a joint venture between the
national oil company PDVSA and the Chinese multi-national CNPC). In July, the Venezuelan
subsidiary Petreven CA had its drilling contract renewed for a further two years for an amount
estimated at USD 28 million and VEF (Venezuelan Bolivar) 487 million.
In February 2016, the Venezuelan government took the decision to devalue the Venezuelan Bolivar
and set a new exchange rate with the US dollar. For some time Venezuela had experienced exchange
rate problems that led to the creation of multiple exchange rate systems: an official one linked to the
US dollar that was set in 2013 and other official parallel rates governed by ad hoc exchange rate
procedures. The risk management policy of TREVI Group has always incorporated operating and
financial means to offset any eventual effects of devaluation and these helped mitigate the economic
and financial effects of the devaluation of the Bolivar. The contracts signed by the subsidiary Petreven
CA have an important component in US Dollars (and the overall margin is in this currency) and
contain price review clauses; these factors have almost completely offset the impact of the devaluation.
24
Chile
The contracts for three of four drill and workover rigs with Geopark in Chile expired in January. In
June the contract for the last rig also expired.
In October, the subsidiary Petreven Cile won a new seven-month drilling contract with the same client
worth approximately USD 8 million. Drilling began in December.
In July, the subsidiary Cilena signed a series of agreements with the Enel Group for the use of its
hydraulic technology for geothermal drilling in Chile.
Colombia
In February, the H201 plant once again started to operate in Colombia as part of a new drilling contract
with the client DCX. The work was completed in March.
Peru
In Peru, work continued for CNPC using one drill rig. In July, the subsidiary Petreven Perù won a new
three-month drilling contract worth an estimated USD 1.5 million.
The international macroeconomic outlook for 2016 continues to be very negative. The oil price fell to
below USD 30 per barrel, its lowest level in the last thirteen years, and is expected to continue to be
weak due to the structural imbalances in the oil market aggravated by over production and
uncertainties concerning medium-term growth in energy demand. To combat the falling profitability
and cash flows of the foreign subsidiaries in the Business Plan and Budget, which, combined with the
drop in the order portfolio, indicate a significant discontinuity compared to previous years, the
company intends to take measures to optimise its investments and contain operating costs that should
help mitigate the negative impact of the outlook.
TREVI Energy S.p.A.
The establishment and growth of this company, active in the sector of renewable energy, reflects
TREVI Group’s desire to adapt some of the technologies that have already been developed and tested
25
in its special foundations and drilling businesses to this sector and to develop new specific and
innovative technological systems for a sector that is expected to have strong future growth.
As part of the development of the wind energy sector, research and innovation has focused not just on
the off-shore sector but, since 2010, also on feasibility studies for the on-shore sector.
Group related-party transactions with non-consolidated subsidiaries, associates and controlling
companies, companies controlled by the latter and with other related parties
TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. has limited relations with Sofitre S.r.l., a company controlled
100% by the Trevisani family, and with the companies it controls, which are mainly involved in the
construction and management of car parks, including T Power S.p.A., which is controlled by Trevi
Holding SE. In the accounting period under review, this relationship gave rise to revenues of Euro
1.372 million, costs of Euro 0.082 million and, at 31 December 2015, receivables of Euro 2.020
million and payables of Euro 0.030 million. Transactions with related companies are done at normal
market conditions. There are no financial or capital relations with the parent company Trevi Holding
SE and any relations with non-consolidated subsidiaries and associate companies, described in Note 35
to the Consolidated Financial Statements, are not material.
Risks and uncertainties
Exchange rate and interest rate risk
Due to its international structure, the Group is subject to market risks from exchange rate and interest
rate fluctuations. It has a policy for covering financial risks, which includes fixed term currency
contracts and financing and hedging in foreign currencies to cover expected cash flows at pre-
established rates. Detailed information on the transactions to hedge exchange rates and the valuation
criteria adopted for these is given in the Notes to the Financial Statements.
26
Credit risk
The sector and geographical diversification of the Group means that it has no significant concentration
of credit risk. Where possible, the Group demands suitable guarantees and sets up ad hoc procedures
for constant monitoring of trade receivables.
Liquidity risk The Group aims to maintain a balance between liquidity demand and supply using suitable bank
financing. In particular, the Group has signed long-term financing agreements aimed at covering its
investment programme and business development.
Risks pertaining to business activities abroad
The Group is exposed to the typical risks of doing business internationally; these include risks
pertaining to local political and economic instability and risks related to changes in the macro-
economic, fiscal and legislative environments. Identifying new initiatives for the Group in foreign
countries is always preceded by a careful appraisal of such risks, which are then constantly monitored.
It should be stressed that the activities of the Group are concentrated mainly in countries covered by
international insurance or where bilateral agreements exist between the Italian government and the
local government.
Use of estimates
The special foundations segment of the Group and the Drillmec division operate with contracts where
payment is determined at the time the contract is awarded. Any higher costs that the Group incurs
and/or suffers in executing these contracts must be met by the Group but may be recouped from the
client according to the laws and/or conditions contractually agreed. Consequently, the margins made
on such contracts may vary from the original estimates that were carefully made for each contract
27
based on the long-term experience the Group has acquired over the years with similar contracts in both
the special foundations and oil & gas sectors.
Risks pertaining to fluctuations in the cost of raw materials
The fluctuations, in some cases significant, in the costs of some raw materials can lead to an increase
in production costs, which, however, the Group tends to offset by a diversified supply policy,
framework agreements with strategic suppliers, and contractual clauses for revising prices. It should
also be mentioned that sales of drill rigs are subject to the investment policies of leading oil
nationals/private companies, which are themselves influenced by the trend in the oil price.
Personnel
The Group has always focused on personnel management; employee loyalty is encouraged by a high
degree of involvement, by the remuneration system, continuous and specific training, the attention paid
to the work environment and, for expatriate employees, a focus on the living environment not only of
the employee but wherever possible of the entire family.
Given the business of the Group, personnel training is done through a dedicated structure called the
TREVI Academy, through “on the job” training and through specific training courses; the work
environment is free of conflict.
Further details are given in the Report on Remuneration, prepared in compliance with Article 123-ter
of Legislative Decree of 24 February 1998 no. 58 and available as required by enacted law at the
registered office of the Company, at Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and on the Company website
www.trevifin.com
28
Environmental awareness and occupational health and safety
Environmental awareness and occupational health and safety have always been among the top
priorities of the Group. The Group constantly strives to maintain a safe work environment and to
provide personnel, according to their roles, with all the equipment necessary to avoid any risk or
danger to their persons. The Group production facilities, offices and operating systems adhere to the
required safety standards. The Group also acts in a way that preserves and protects the environment, in
compliance with existing environmental legislation, as well as the rules and procedures that the Group
itself has prepared. Lastly, security systems are used to guard Company property and, in particular, all
forms of inventory.
Corporate Social Responsibility
The TREVI Group considers sustainability to be an integral part of its business as it represents a
guarantee of long-term growth and value creation through the effective involvement of all
stakeholders.
In order to adhere to the Principles of Sustainability, the TREVI Group has chosen to adopt a
Corporate Social Responsibility programme that is continually updated, monitored and agreed on by
persons of all levels of responsibility.
The nature, type and complexity of the Group businesses have always necessitated a particular focus
on the environmental and social aspects of executing a project.
Furthermore, the profile of the countries and regions in which the Group operates means it has always
had a distinctive approach to sustainability in order to contribute to the socio-economic development
of the regions in which it is present through an effective strategy of local content that mainly aims at
local employment.
There are numerous examples of collaborations and joint ventures in which the Group is involved that
demonstrate its exceptional ability to adapt to the various local cultures and its considerable skill in
project managing important contracts.
29
Another strong point of the Group regarding local content is the ever-increasing diversity of its
employees – a pool of young talent from a multitude of countries whose professionalism grows with
that of TREVI on the various projects in which they are involved, either in their own countries or
abroad, and wherever there are support structures like engineering and logistics centres for
warehousing construction and worksite equipment.
The call to behave responsibly and with integrity, contained in the Code of Ethics, and the reference to
value creation is embedded in the corporate mission statement: "The mission of the TREVI Group is to
design, manufacture and offer innovative technologies and services for all types of foundations
engineering projects".
The Social Responsibility model adopted and which guides the Company policies reflects these
principles and may be described as follows:
• Provide accurate and transparent reports to stakeholders not only on the financial performance
but also on the social, cultural and environmental results of the Company’s activities.
• Contribute to the development of communities in which it is present through investments in
cultural, sporting, educational and social initiatives.
• Show increasing attention to the environment through a programme that monitors and helps
reduce the environmental impact of its businesses.
• Contribute to the wellbeing of employees not only in the workplace but also, in the case of
expatriates, focus on their living environment, logistics for their families and the education of
their children.
Social projects supported by TREVI Group include:
• Romagna Solidale non-profit organisation (Italy): membership fee and project support
• Caritas: donation
• Romagna Iniziative (a consortium to promote youth sport, art and culture in the region):
membership fee and project support
30
• Support given to the Nuova Famiglia for healthcare projects for able and disabled persons
(Italy)
• Italian Home for Children (USA): donation
• “Planeta Amor” Foundation: educational and nutritional support for infants and adolescents
with HIV / AIDS
• Donations, cooperation and development for NGOs and NPOs to provide 1,000 water wells in
Uganda.
• Construction of the New Center for Autistic Children in Oman
• Support given to the Jardín Nuestra Señora del Valle Orphanage in Argentina
• Support given to youth sporting activities (Basket Cesena, Cesena Volley, Rugby Cesena)
• Various donations to orphanages and local schools in the Philippines
These donations demonstrate the focus and involvement of the Group in daily life and the Company’s
ability to integrate the social dimension into its business activities.
Business outlook
At 31 December 2015, the Group had acquired a significant number of new contracts that will ensure a
sustained level of business in the 2016 financial year.
Trevi and Soilmec continue to benefit from the attractive growth in the special foundations sector.
Despite the drop in the oil price, the Oil & Gas division has managed to win some important contracts
in North Africa and the Middle East where oil extraction costs are considerably lower. The
management of the Group, also on the basis of the budget approved by the Board of Directors on 16
December 2015 and the 2017-2018 economic and financial forecasts prepared by the Managing
Director and presented to the Board of Directors, believes there is no reason why the Group should not
return in 2016 to the levels of margins and profitability it achieved in previous financial years given
that those in the 2015 financial year were almost entirely due to an exceptional non-recurring event as
explained above.
31
Internal Dealing
In 2015, six internal dealing notifications were made: Gianluigi Trevisani (one), Cesare Trevisani
(one), Antonio Arienti (one), and for purchase of treasury shares by TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale
S.p.A. (three) also communicated through the 3 F attachment under paragraph 1.4 of the Listing Rules.
All the notifications were deposited with Borsa Italiana and are available on its website and on the
Company website, www.trevifin.com under the investor relations section in a sub-section for internal
dealing notifications and in the subs-section for communications on the purchase of treasury shares by
the Company.
Other information
In accordance with Consob communication of 28 July 2006 no. DEM/6064293, it is stated that, in
2015, the TREVI Group did not carry out any atypical and/or unusual transactions, as defined in the
Communication.
Significant events after the end of the reporting period:
On 2 March 2016, Trevi S.p.A., the company that heads the Group division active in special
foundations and ground consolidation, signed a contract to make safe and carry out maintenance work
on the Mosul Dam in Iraq. The Iraqi Ministry for Water Resources (MWR) supervised the preparation
and signing of the contract worth a total of Euro 273 milliion. Trevi S.p.A. won the contract following
an international tender published in October 2015, which followed an accelerated procedure given the
critical situation of the dam.
The contract confirms the esteem in which TREVI Group is held internationally due to its long-
standing experience of this type of Special Works and of working in the Middle East. This important
project will require intense drilling activity and the injection of concrete mixes to consolidate the
foundations of the dam, as well as repair and maintenance work on the bottom outlet galleries of the
dam that have suffered damage. With the first deployment of personnel will begin specialisation and
training courses for local technicians and employees in the use of the drilling equipment manufactured
32
by Soilmec.
The presence of an Italian military contingent and local security forces will guarantee the safety of
over 450 technicians and employees of Trevi.

NOTES TO THE 2015 CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Tables in Euro ‘000)
Introduction
TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. (the “Company”) and its subsidiaries (the “TREVI Group” or “the
Group”) operates in the two following sectors:
• Foundation engineering services for civil works and infrastructure projects and construction of
equipment for special foundations (“Special Foundations – (the Core Business)”);
• Construction of drill rigs for the extraction of hydrocarbons and water exploration and oil drilling
services (“Oil & Gas”).
These businesses are organised within the four main companies of the Group:
• Trevi S.p.A., which heads the sector of foundation engineering;
• Petreven S.p.A., which operates in the drilling sector providing oil drilling services;
• Soilmec S.p.A., which heads the Division manufacturing and marketing plant and equipment for
foundation engineering;
• Drillmec S.p.A., which manufactures and sells drilling equipment for the extraction of hydrocarbons
and water exploration.
TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A is controlled by Trevi Holding SE which, in turn, is controlled by I.F.I.T.
S.r.l.. TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. has been listed on the Milan stock exchange since July 1999.
General presentation criteria
These Financial Statements were approved and authorised to be made public by the Board of Directors on 23
March 2016. The Shareholders’ Meeting has the power to alter the Financial Statements as proposed by the
Board of Directors.
The 2015 Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared and presented in compliance with the
International Accounting Standards (“IFRS”) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB)
and adopted by the European Commission and by the provisions of Article 9 of Legislative Decree no. 38/2005.
By IFRS it is intended to include also all the International Accounting Standards (IAS) that have been reviewed
and all the interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee (IFRIC),
previously known as the Standing Interpretations Committee (SIC). The Financial Statements are prepared
using historic cost except for financial derivatives, which are recognised at fair value.
The Consolidated Financial Statements of the TREVI Group, given that there exist no uncertainties or doubts
concerning its ability to continue its business for the foreseeable future, have been prepared on a going concern
basis. As already described in the Report on Operations, the majority of the loss incurred by the Group in the
2015 financial year was attributable to an unforeseen and non-recurring, single event linked to a contract
acquired by an associate company.
46
The going concern assumption, based on the 2016 Budget (approved by the Board of Directors of TREVI -
Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. on 16 December 2015) and the economic and financial forecasts for 2017 and
2018 prepared by the Managing Director and discussed by the Board of Directors, presupposes that, already in
2016, the TREVI Group will generate margins and profitability similar to those achieved in the financial years
prior to 2015.
The Consolidated Financial Statements give comparative information for the preceding financial year.
Financial Statement accounts and tables
The Consolidated Income Statement uses aggregated costs as this classification is deemed more useful for
understanding the results of the Group.
The Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income includes the result for the period and changes in net
equity other than transactions with shareholders.
The Statement of Financial Position is classified using the operating cycle of the Company to make the
distinction between current and non-current items. On this basis, assets and liabilities are considered current if it
is assumed that they will be realized or settled within a normal operating cycle of the Group and within twelve
months of the end of the reporting period.
The Statement of Cash Flows is prepared using the indirect method to determine financial flows deriving from
financial or investment activities.
In preparing the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Parent Company and the Italian and foreign
subsidiaries have prepared their income statements, statements of financial position and cash flow data using
IAS/IFRS, adjusting the figures prepared using locally enacted regulations. The reporting packages of
subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures are available at the registered office of TREVI - Finanziaria
Industriale S.p.A.
Consolidation criteria
The Consolidated Financial Statements include the Financial Statements of TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale
S.p.A and its subsidiaries at 31 December 2015.
Subsidiaries:
Control of a company is obtained when both power and variable returns are present and derive from its
involvement with the investee and when the investor has the power to direct the activities that significantly
influence returns.
Under IFRS 10, companies are investees if and only if the Parent Company:
- has power over the investee (or has valid rights that give it the current ability to direct the activities
of the investee)
- is exposed or has rights to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and
- can use its power over the investee to affect the returns.
When the Group holds less than 50% of the voting rights (or similar rights) it must consider all the relevant
facts and circumstances to establish if it controls the investee.
47
The Group assesses whether control of an investee entity exists if the facts and circumstances indicate that there
has been a change in one or more of the three criteria that define the existence of control.
The financial statements of all the subsidiaries have the same year-end accounting date as the Parent Company,
TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A.
The accounts of subsidiaries are consolidated using the line by line method from the time that control is
acquired until such time as this control is relinquished. Line by line consolidation requires that the assets and
liabilities, as well as the costs and revenues of the entities to be consolidated, are fully consolidated, attributing
the share of the investments in net equity and the result for the period to the relevant entries of the Statement of
Financial Position, Income Statement and Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Under IFRS 10, the total loss (including the profit/loss for the period) is attributed to the shareholders of the
controlling entity and non-controlling interests also when the net equity attributable to non-controlling interests
is negative.
The reciprocal debit/credit and cost/revenue relationships for companies within the area of consolidation and
the effects of all significant transactions among these companies are eliminated. Unrealised profits with third
parties deriving from intergroup transactions, including those from a valuation of inventories at the end of the
reporting period, are eliminated.
The carrying value of the investments in each subsidiary is eliminated for the corresponding amount of net
equity of each of the subsidiaries including any eventual fair value adjustments for impairment at the date
control was acquired. Goodwill at the acquisition date is calculated as described below and is recognised in
intangible assets whilst any “profit from a bargain purchase (or negative goodwill)” is recognised in profit or
loss.
Under IFRS 10, the partial disposal of an investment in a subsidiary while control is retained is accounted for as
an equity transaction. In these circumstances, the carrying value of the increased or decreased investment is
adjusted to reflect the change of the investment in the subsidiary. Any difference between the value adjusted for
non-controlling interests and the fair value of the acquisition price paid or received is recognised directly in
equity and attributed to the shareholders of the parent company. On the loss of control of a business it:
� derecognises the assets (including any goodwill) and liabilities of the subsidiary according to their carrying
values on the date that control is lost
� derecognises the carrying amount of any non-controlling interests in the former subsidiary on the date that
control is lost (including any other item of other comprehensive income attributable to it)
� recognises the fair value of any consideration received as a result of the transaction, the event or
circumstances that determined the loss of control
� recognises, if the transaction that resulted in the loss of control involves a distribution of shares of the
subsidiary to owners in their capacity as owners, that distribution
� recognises any investment retained in the former subsidiary at its fair value on the date control is lost
� reclassifies in profit or loss for the year, or to retained earnings if required under other IFRSs, the share of
the investor previously recognised in other comprehensive income;
� recognises the gain or loss associated with the loss of control attributable to the former controlling interest.
48
Associate companies:
Associate companies are those in which the Group exercises significant influence. Significant influence is when
it can influence the financial and management policies of the associate without having control or joint control
over it. It is deemed to have significant influence when it holds an important share (between 20% and 50%) of
the voting rights in the Shareholders’ Meeting of a company.
Investments in associates are consolidated using the equity method in accordance with IAS 28 – Investments in
Associates and Joint Ventures.
The investment is initially recognised at cost and subsequently at cost adjusted for the changes in the share of
net equity of the investor in the investment.
The Group’s share of the profits or losses of associated companies, following acquisition of the shareholdings
in associate companies, is recognized in profit or loss for the period.
Unrealised gains or losses from transactions with associates are eliminated to the extent of the Group’s interest
in the associate.
Having applied the equity method of accounting, the Group evaluates if it is necessary to recognise an
impairment of its investment in the associate company. At the end of every reporting period, the Group
measures if there is any objective evidence that an investment in an associate company is impaired. The Group
calculates the impairment as the difference between the recoverable amount of an investment in an associate
and its carrying value and recognises any difference in profit or loss under the entry, profit/loss from associates.
Use of the equity method ceases from the date that significant influence ceases and the residual amount of the
investment is recognised at fair value. The difference between the sum of the proceeds received and any
retained interest and the carrying amount of the associate at the date significant influence is lost is recognised in
profit or loss.
Joint Ventures:
IFRS 11 – Joint Arrangements defines joint control as the contractually agreed sharing of control of an
arrangement, which exists only when decisions about the relevant activities require the unanimous consent of
the parties sharing control. A joint venture is a joint arrangement whereby the parties that have joint control of
the arrangement have rights to the net assets of the arrangement. Under IFRS 11, a joint venturer recognises its
interest in a joint venture as an investment and accounts for that investment using the equity method in
accordance with IAS 28 - Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures.
Translation into Euro of the financial statements of foreign companies:
The Consolidated Financial Statements are in Euro, which is the functional and presentation currency of the
Parent Company.
The financial statements of foreign companies that are consolidated are converted into Euro applying the
current exchange rate method, which requires the use of exchange rates prevailing at the year-end for assets and
liabilities and the average exchange rates for the financial period for the income statements. Exchange rate
differences deriving from the translation of the opening net equity at the exchange rate prevailing at the end of
49
the reporting period and that prevailing at the start of the reporting period and those deriving from the
translation of the income statement using average exchange rates for the reporting period are recognised in a
translation reserve in the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Exchange rate differences from translation are an entry in the Statement of Comprehensive Income until the
investment is divested when these differences are recognised in profit or loss.
The exchange rates used in the 2015 Financial Statements are as follows (currency: Euro 1.00):

Consolidation Area
The consolidation area for 2015 changed compared to 31 December 2014 as follows:
• Trevi Arabco J.V. was established with a registered office in Egypt; it is 51% controlled by the TREVI
Group and was fully consolidated on 31 December 2015 since, under the joint venture agreement and
subsequent amendments, the Group controls the company
• Trevi Holding USA Corp. was established with a registered office in the USA; it is 100% owned by the
TREVI Group and was fully consolidated on 31 December 2015.
Associate companies in which the Parent Company has a direct or indirect holding which does not constitute
control, as well as joint ventures, are equity accounted. Appendix 1a shows investments valued using the
equity accounting method. The values under the equity accounting method use the figures of the most recent
financial statements approved by these companies.
Non-controlling interests and non-controlling stakes in consortia or non-operating companies for which no fair
50
value exists are valued using the cost accounting method and adjusted for any impairment losses. In particular,
limited liability consortia and consortia specifically set up as operating entities for projects or works acquired
by a consortium including other companies and in existence for a limited period, which have financial
statements with no operating result because they off-set any direct costs by a corresponding debit to the
combined businesses of the consortium, are cost accounted.
Trevi Park Plc and Hercules Trevi Foundation A.B. have been accounted for at cost since they are considered to
be immaterial. These companies were set up in prior years for specific projects in their relative countries. The
percentage held in these companies is as follows:
Company % held Trevi Park Plc 29.7% Hercules Trevi Foundation A.B. 49.50%
Further details are shown in the chart of the Group structure in Appendix 1c.
Valuation criteria
The most significant criteria adopted in the preparation of the Financial Statements at 31 December 2014 are
the following:
51
NON-CURRENT ASSETS:
Property, plant and equipment are valued using the cost method as required by IAS 16. Under this standard,
tangible assets are stated at their acquisition or construction cost, including contingent costs and costs incurred,
and subsequently adjusted for depreciation, impairment losses and reversals.
Depreciation is calculated and charged to profit or loss on a straight line basis over the useful life of the asset on
the depreciable amount, equal to the cost of the asset at the recognition date less its residual value.
Financial costs contingent on the acquisition, construction or manufacture of a tangible fixed asset are charged
to profit or loss.
The capitalization of costs contingent on adding to, updating or improving assets for the Group’s own use or in
use from third parties is only effected when these costs meet the requirement for them to be classified as a
separate asset or part of an asset.
The depreciable amount of each significant element of a tangible fixed asset with a different useful life is
apportioned on a straight line basis over its estimated useful life.
Description Years % Land Indefinite useful life - Industrial buildings 33 3% Lightweight constructions 10 10% Generic equipment and accessories 20 5% Drilling equipment 13 7.5% Various and smaller equipment 5 20% Motor vehicles 5-4 18.75%-25% Transport vehicles 10 10% Excavators and piles 10 10% Office furniture and fittings 8.3 12% Electromechanical office machinery 5 20% Motorised tenders 20 5% Note: The estimated useful life of the industrial building at Gariga di Podenzano (Piacenza), the headquarters of Drillmec S.p.A., is 20
years.
The criteria for the depreciation rate used, the useful life and the residual value, are calculated at least as often as
the end of each reporting period in order to take account of any significant changes and are adjusted
prospectively where necessary.
The capitalized costs for improvements to third-party assets are recognized in the relevant fixed asset category
and depreciated for the shorter of either the residual length of the leasing contract or the residual useful life.
The carrying value of property, plant and equipment remains in the Statement of Financial Position as long as
that value can be recouped from their use. An asset is derecognised at the moment of its sale or when any future
economic benefits will cease to derive from its use or sale. Any gains or losses (calculated as the difference
between the net consideration received and the carrying value) are recognised in profit or loss on derecognition.
Ordinary maintenance costs are entirely recognised in profit or loss. Those increasing the value of the asset, by
extending its useful life, are capitalized.
Leases
Financial leases are accounted for in compliance with IAS 17. The definition of an agreement as a lease (or
containing a lease) depends on the substance of the transaction and requires a judgement on whether it depends
52
on the use of one or more specific assets or if the agreement transfers the right to use these assets. An
assessment as to whether an agreement is a lease is made at the inception of the lease. This requires that:
• the cost of leased assets is recognized in fixed assets and is depreciated on a straight line basis for the
estimated useful life of the asset; there is a corresponding entry for financial payables towards the
lessor for an amount equal to the fair value of the leased asset;
• lease payments are recognized in such a way as to separate the financial element from the capital
element, considered as repayment of the outstanding liability to the lessor, so as to produce a constant
periodic rate of interest on the remaining balance of the liability. Financial costs are recognised in profit
or loss.
Leased assets are depreciated over the useful life of the asset. However, if there is no reasonable certainty that
the Group will obtain ownership of the asset at the end of the lease, the asset is depreciated over the shorter of
the lease term or the life of the asset.
Leasing contracts where the lessor retains almost all the risks and rewards of the asset are classed as operating
leases and the lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or loss over the lease term on a straight-line
basis.
Leasing contracts where the lessor retains almost all the risks and rewards of the asset are classed as operating
leases.
Business combinations
Business combinations are recognised using the acquisition method whereby the transaction cost of a business
combination is valued at fair value, (calculated as the fair value of the assets transferred and liabilities assumed
by the Group at the date of acquisition and of any equity instruments issued in exchange for control of the
acquired entity and the value of non-controlling interests in the entity acquired). All other costs directly
associated with the transaction are immediately expensed in profit or loss.
The fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed are measured at fair value at the
acquisition date; the following entries are excluded and are measured in accordance with the relevant
accounting standard:
• deferred tax liabilities and deferred tax assets;
• assets and liabilities for employee benefits;
• share-based payment for the acquired entity or payment with Group shares issued in exchange for
contracts of the acquired entity;
• held for sale assets and discontinued operations.
Goodwill is the difference between the cost of the acquisition, the net equity attributable to non-controlling
interests and the fair value of any previously held equity interest in the entity and the acquiring enterprise’s fair
value of the identifiable assets acquired less the liabilities assumed. If the difference between the net of the
acquisition-date amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed exceeds the
consideration transferred for the business combination, the amount of any non-controlling interest and the
acquisition-date fair value of any previously held equity interest in the acquiree, the excess sum is
immediately recognised in profit or loss as income from the transaction.
53
Non-controlling interests are measured at the transaction date using either the fair value of the non-controlling
interests or the proportionate interest of the fair value of net identifiable assets of the entity acquired. The
method used is decided on a transaction by transaction basis.
Any contingent considerations in the business combination contract are valued at fair value on the acquisition
date and included in the consideration transferred for the business combination in order to measure goodwill.
Subsequent adjustments to this fair value that are considered a measurement period adjustment are made
against goodwill. Adjustments to fair value that are measurement period adjustments are those arising from
additional information that affects the facts and circumstances as they existed at the acquisition date obtained
during the measurement period (which cannot exceed twelve months from the date of the business
combination).
When a business acquisition is achieved in stages (step acquisition) any previously held equity interest is
measured at fair value at the date of obtaining control and any resulting adjustments are recognised in profit
or loss. A previously held interest recognised in other profit or loss is treated as if the acquirer had disposed of
its previously held interest.
If the initial accounting for a business combination can be determined only provisionally by the end of the first
reporting period, the Group uses provisional values in the Consolidated Financial Statements for those entries
where determination is impossible. There is a measurement period adjustment in the fair value if additional
information is obtained after the acquisition date that affects the facts or circumstances as they existed at the
acquisition date which, if known, would have had an effect on the values of the liabilities and assets recognised
at that date.
Business combinations from before 1 January 2010 are recognised under the previous version of IFRS 3.
Goodwill
Goodwill arising on a business combination is recognised at cost on the date of acquisition as described in the
preceding section. Goodwill is not amortised but is subject to impairment testing at least annually and more
frequently if there is any evidence of impairment. In order to test for impairment, goodwill acquired in a
business combination is allocated at the acquisition date to the Group cash generating units that will benefit
from the synergies of the combination irrespective of whether other assets or liabilities of the acquiree are
assigned to those cash generating units. After initial recognition, goodwill is measured at cost less any
impairment stemming from the impairment tests.
At the disposal date of part or of an entire investment for which there was goodwill at the acquisition date, the
capital gain or loss on disposal takes account of the residual value of the goodwill.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets acquired or produced internally are recognized at the cost of acquisition or production when it
is probable that use of the asset will produce future economic benefits and when the cost of acquiring or
producing the asset can be reliably determined. These assets are valued at acquisition or production cost.
Those intangible assets having a finite useful life are depreciated on a straight line basis over the estimated
54
useful life of the assets as follows:
− Development costs:
Research costs are recognized in profit or loss at the time they are incurred. Development costs that are required
by IAS 38 to be classified as an asset (when there is the technical capacity, the intention and capability, the
availability of necessary resources to complete the asset for use or sale, or the ability exists to make a reliable
assessment of the attributable development costs) are usually depreciated over five years on the basis of their
estimated future useful life from the moment such assets are available for economic use. The useful life is
assessed and modified if there is any estimated change in its future usefulness.
− Industrial patents, use of intellectual property, concessions, licences and brands:
These are valued at cost net of accumulated depreciation, calculated on a straight line basis for the duration of
the useful life barring any significant impairment. The criteria for depreciation, useful life and residual value
are examined and measured at least as often as the end of each financial year in order to take account of any
significant changes.
Intangible assets with an indefinite useful life are not amortised but are subject, at least annually, to an
impairment test, both as an individual asset and as part of a cash generating unit. The useful life of an intangible
asset that is not being amortised is reviewed at the end of each reporting period to determine whether events and
circumstances continue to support an indefinite useful life assessment for the asset. If they do not, the change in
the useful life assessment from indefinite to finite is accounted for as a change in an accounting estimate.
Any gains or losses on derecognition of an intangible asset are calculated as the difference between the net
consideration received and the carrying value and are recognised in profit or loss in the reporting period in
which the intangible asset is derecognized.
Impairment
The Group tests goodwill and other intangible assets (including capitalised development costs) for impairment
at least annually at the end of the reporting period, or more often if there is any evidence that an asset has been
impaired. The recoverable value of tangible assets (land and buildings, plant and machinery, industrial and
commercial equipment, other fixed assets under construction) are tested for impairment any time there is an
indication that an asset has been impaired and at least annually.
If there is evidence of impairment, the carrying value of the asset is reduced to the recoverable value. Intangible
assets with an indefinite life are tested for impairment at least annually at the end of the reporting period, or
more often if there is any evidence that an asset has been impaired.
When the recoverable value of a single asset cannot be measured, the Group estimates the recoverable value of
the cash-generating unit to which it belongs.
The recoverable amount of the asset is assessed by comparing the carrying value with the higher of the net
selling price of the asset and its value in use. The value in use is the discounted present value of future cash
flows, pre-tax, using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects the time value of money represented by the current
market risk-free rate of interest and the uncertainty inherent in the asset. Impairment is recognised when
55
carrying value exceeds the recoverable value.
With the exception of goodwill, when the impairment of an asset no longer exists or decreases, the carrying
value of the asset or cash-generating unit is reinstated only up to the new estimate of recoverable value. The
reinstated value cannot exceed the value that would have been measured if there had been no impairment.
Reversal of an impairment loss is recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Investment property
This item in the Statement of Financial Position includes fixed assets which under IAS 40 - Investment Property
are not considered essential to the business activities of the company.
Such assets include property held to earn rental or for capital appreciation when the cost of the property can be
reliably measured and the future economic benefits associated with it will flow to the business; the cost is
depreciated on the basis of the estimated future economic life of the asset.
Financial assets
In compliance with IAS 39 financial assets are designated under the following categories:
− Held-to-maturity investments: investments in financial assets with fixed maturities and determinable or
fixed payments which the Group has the intention and capacity to hold to maturity;
− Available-for-sale financial assets: financial assets other than those in the preceding paragraph or those
designated as such from the start.
− Loans and receivables: these are non-derivative financial assets with fixed or determinable payments
that are not quoted in an active market.
− Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: this category includes both held for trading assets
and assets designated on initial recognition as assets to be measured at fair value with fair value changes
in profit or loss. Held for trading assets are financial assets acquired or held for the purpose of selling in
the short-term or for which there is a recent pattern of short-term profit taking. All derivatives, except
those designated as hedging instruments under IAS 39, are held for trading financial assets.
The Group decides the designation of the financial assets at the moment of acquisition; the initial recognition is
the fair value at the acquisition date, including transaction costs; for purchase or sale date, the settlement date of
the transaction is intended.
After initial recognition, the financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and the available-for-sale
financial assets are measured at fair value. Gains or losses deriving from variations in the fair values of the
financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are recognized in profit or loss in the financial year they
occur. The unrealised gains or losses deriving from variations in the fair value of assets designated as financial
assets available for sale are recognized in equity.
Held-to-maturity investments, as well as loans and financial receivables are measured at amortised cost using
the effective interest method net of any persistent impairment loss. The effective interest rate is the rate that
exactly discounts estimated future cash payments or receipts through the expected life of the financial
instrument to the net carrying amount of the financial asset or liability and is recognised as financial income in
profit or loss. Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss as financial costs.
56
The fair value of financial assets is measured on the basis of listed offer prices or financial models. The fair
value of unlisted financial assets is estimated using valuation techniques appropriate to the characteristics of the
issuer. Financial assets for which the current value cannot be reliably determined are accounted for at cost less
impairment.
At the end of each reporting period, the presence of any indications that assets may be impaired is assessed and
any losses are charged to profit or loss. Previously recognized impairment losses are reversed if the reason for
the original recognition of the impairment no longer exists.
Treasury shares
In accordance with IAS 32, when the Group’s own equity instruments are reacquired, these treasury shares are
deducted from equity under the entry treasury shares. Gains or losses are not recognized in profit or loss on the
purchase, sale or cancellation of treasury shares.
Any consideration paid or received, including any transaction costs directly attributable to the capital
transaction, net of any associated tax benefit, is recognized directly as a change in net equity.
The voting rights of treasury shares are cancelled as is their right to dividends. Treasury shares are used to meet
the obligations of any options on shares that are exercised.
Trade receivables, financial receivables and other non-current financial assets
Non-current receivables and other non-current financial assets are initially recognised at fair value and
subsequently valued at amortised cost.
Financial assets either singly or as part of a cash-generating unit are regularly tested for impairment. Any
impairment loss is immediately recognised as an expense in profit or loss.
Investments in other entities
Investments in entities that are not subsidiaries, associates or joint ventures are recognised at the acquisition date
in investments, and valued at cost when the fair value cannot be measured reliably; in this case the cost is
adjusted for any impairment in accordance with IAS 39.
Grants
In accordance with IAS 20 - Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance,
grants are recognised, even without a formal confirmation, when there is a reasonable assurance that the
company will adhere to the conditions attached to the grant and that the grant will be received.
The grant is recognized in profit or loss on the basis of the useful life of the benefit for which it is given, by
means of the deferral method in order to deduct the calculated depreciation.
A grant relating to expenses and costs already incurred or for immediate financial support to a company, with no
future related costs, is recognised as income in the period in which it is received.
57
CURRENT ASSETS
Inventories
Inventories are carried at the lower of purchase cost and net realisable value; any impairment losses accounted
for are reversed if in future financial periods the causes of the impairment no longer exist.
The cost is calculated using the average weighted cost method for raw materials, ancillary materials,
consumables and semi-finished materials and the specific cost for the other categories of inventories.
The net realisable value is the estimated selling price in the ordinary course of business, less the estimated cost
of depreciation and the estimated costs necessary to make the sale.
Contract work in progress
A construction contract is defined by IAS 11 - Construction Contracts as a contract specifically negotiated for
the construction of an asset or a group of interrelated assets or interdependent as far as regards their planning,
technology and function or their final use. Contract costs are expensed in the financial year they are incurred.
Contract revenues are recognised in proportion to the stage of completion of contract activity at the end of the
reporting period when the outcome of the contract can be estimated reliably.
When the outcome of a contract cannot be estimated reliably, the revenues are recognised only to the extent that
contract costs incurred are expected to be recoverable.
When it is likely that the total costs of a contract exceed the total revenues of the contract, the total estimated
losses are immediately recognised as a cost.
Contract revenues are recognised in proportion to the stage of completion of contract activity:
• contracts in the Oil & Gas Division and for the longer-term contracts in the Special Foundations – (Core
Business) Division are recognised on a cost-to-cost basis whereby the proportion of contract costs
incurred for work completed by the end of the reporting period to the estimated total contract costs is
calculated;
• for shorter-term contracts in the Special Foundations – (Core Business) Division the percentage of
completion is calculated applying the criteria of “physical measurement” as this approximates to cost-
to-cost.
Contract work in progress is recognised in the Statement of Financial Position as follows:
• the amounts due from contractors is included in assets, under trade receivables and other current assets,
when the costs incurred, plus the related profits (less the related losses) exceed any advances received;
• the amounts due to contractors is included in liabilities, under trade payables and other current
liabilities, when the advances received exceed the costs incurred plus the related profits (less the related
losses).
Trade receivables and other current assets
Receivables due within normal credit terms or which carry interest at market rates are not discounted but are
recognised at nominal value net of an allowance for doubtful receivables so that their value is in line with the
estimated realisable value.
58
Receivables are recognised at their estimated realisable value; this value approximates the amortised cost. If this
is expressed in foreign currency, it is translated using the exchange rate at the year-end accounting date.
This item of the Statement of Financial Position also includes the share of costs and revenues spread over two or
more years to reflect the time proportion principle correctly.
Sales of receivables
The Group sells some of its trade and tax receivables through factoring transactions.
Transfers of receivables may be with recourse or without recourse; some without recourse transactions include
deferred payment clauses (for example, payment of a minority part of the acquisition price by the factor is
dependent on total recovery of the receivables), require a guarantee on the part of the seller or imply continued
material exposure to the cash flows from the transferred receivables.
This type of transaction does not meet the derecognition requirements under IAS 39 as substantially all the risks
and rewards have not been transferred.
Consequently all receivables sold through factoring agreements that do not meet the requirements for
derecognition under IAS 39 remain in the Statement of Financial Position even if they have been legally
transferred; a financial liability of an equal amount is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Financial
Position in the entry, liabilities for other financing. All receivables transferred through factoring agreements
that meet the requirements for derecognition under IAS 39, when substantially all the risks and rewards are
transferred, are derecognised from the Statement of Financial Position.
Gains or losses resulting from the sale of receivables are recognised when the assets are derecognised from the
Consolidated Statement of Financial Position.
Impairment of financial assets
At the end of each reporting period, the Group assesses whether a financial asset or group of financial assets is
impaired. A financial asset or group of assets is impaired, and impairment losses are recognised, only if there is
objective evidence as a result of one or more events that occurred after initial recognition and this impairment
event has an impact that may be reliably measured on the estimated future cash flows deriving from the
financial assets or group of assets. Evidence of impairment can come from significant financial difficulties of
the debtor, the inability of a debtor to meet obligations, failure or delays in interest payments or payment when
due, a probability of being subject to bankruptcy procedures or other forms of financial reorganisation, and from
observable data that indicates a measurable decrease in estimated future cash flows such as changes in the
economic environment or conditions linked to financial crises.
Financial assets at amortised cost
If there is any objective evidence that a loan or a receivable carried at amortised cost is impaired, the amount of
the loss is measured as the difference between the carrying value of the asset and the present value of estimated
future cash flows discounted at the effective interest rate of the instrument at initial recognition.
The carrying amount of the asset is reduced by establishing an allowance for impairment losses. The amount of
the loss is recognised in profit or loss. Interest receivable continues to be measured on the lower carrying value
59
and is calculated by applying the rate used to discount estimated future cash flows when measuring impairment.
Interest receivable is recognised in profit or loss in financial income.
The Group assesses at each end of a reporting period whether there is any objective evidence of impairment;
if, in a subsequent period, the amount of the impairment loss decreases due to an event occurring after the
impairment was originally recognised, the previously recognised impairment loss is reversed
through profit or loss to the extent that the carrying amount of the asset does not exceed the amortised cost at the
date the impairment loss is reversed.
For trade receivables, an impairment allowance is made when there is objective evidence (for example, evidence
that the debtor is insolvent or in significant financial difficulty) that the Group will not receive in full the
amount due under the original agreement. The carrying amount of the receivable is reduced by establishing a
related allowance account. Impaired receivables are written off if considered irrecoverable.
Available for sale financial assets
At the end of the reporting period, the Group ascertains if there is any objective evidence of impairment of an
available for sale financial asset or group of financial assets.
For equity instruments classified as available for sale, objective evidence includes a significant or prolonged
reduction in fair value to below cost. The term “significant” is measured with respect to the acquisition cost and
the term “prolonged” is based on the period for which fair value has been lower than acquisition cost. When a
decline in the fair value of the asset has been recognised directly in other comprehensive income and there is
objective evidence that the asset is impaired, the cumulative loss – measured as the difference between the
initial cost and the current fair value – recognised directly in other comprehensive income is removed from
other comprehensive income and recognised in profit or loss.
Subsequent reversals of impairment losses recognised in profit or loss on equity instruments are recognised in
other comprehensive income.
Amortised cost is calculated by also measuring the discount or premium on acquisition and fees and costs as
these are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Amortisation using the effective interest method is
recognised in profit or loss in financial expenses.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are highly liquid short-term investments (with an original maturity of no more than
three months), easily convertible into considerable sums of cash and subject to no significant variation from fair
value.
In the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents include cash and bank accounts, net of bank
overdrafts. In the Statement of Financial Position, bank overdrafts are included in financial debt as part of
current liabilities.
60
EQUITY AND LIABILITIES:
− Issued share capital
This item is the subscribed and fully paid-up share capital; it is shown at nominal value. The acquisition of
treasury shares, valued at the consideration paid including any related costs, is recognised as a change in equity
and the nominal value of the treasury stock is deducted from shareholders funds whilst the difference between
the purchase cost and the nominal value of the treasury stock is deducted from reserves.
− Share price premium
This item is the excess of the issue price of the shares over their nominal value and this reserve also includes the
difference of the conversion price of bonds to shares.
− Other reserves
These include capital reserves with a specific destination within the Parent Company and the adjustments made
on the first-time adoption of IAS/IFRS.
− Retained earnings/ (losses)
This item includes the economic results of prior financial years which have not been distributed or taken to
reserves (in the case of profits) or covered (in the case of losses), and movements from other equity reserves
when the need for which the latter were set up no longer exists. This entry also includes the profit or loss for the
year.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities that are subject to IAS 39 are recognised in financial liabilities at fair value through profit or
loss, mortgages or loans or derivatives designated as hedging instruments. The Group decides the designation of
financial liabilities at the moment of purchase.
All financial liabilities are measured at fair value including for mortgages and loans any directly attributable
transaction costs.
The Group financial liabilities include trade payables and other payables, overdrafts, mortgages and loans,
guarantees and financial derivative instruments.
The Group has not recognised any financial liability at fair value through profit or loss.
Loans
These are initially recognised at cost on the acquisition date, which is equal to the fair value of the sum received
net of related costs. Subsequently, financing transactions are valued by the amortised cost method using the
effective interest method. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the liability is extinguished, as
well as through the amortisation process.
Amortised cost is calculated by also measuring the discount or premium on acquisition and fees and costs as
these are an integral part of the effective interest rate. Amortisation using the effective interest method is
recognised in profit or loss in financial expenses.
Derecognition
61
A financial liability is derecognised when the obligation specified in the contract has been discharged, cancelled
or has expired. Where there has been an exchange between an existing borrower and lender of debt instruments
with substantially different terms, or there has been a substantial modification of the terms of an existing
financial liability, this transaction is accounted for as an extinguishment of the original financial liability and the
recognition of a new financial liability. A gain or loss from extinguishment of the original financial liability is
recognised in profit or loss.
Derivative instruments
TREVI Group has adopted a Group policy approved by the Board of Directors on 1 February 2008. All financial
instruments are initially measured at fair value on the date the contract is signed and are subsequently measured
at fair value. Derivatives are accounted as financial assets when the fair value is positive and as financial
liabilities when the fair value is negative.
The fair value of financial instruments exchanged on an active market is measured at the end of every reporting
period using quoted market prices or broker quotes (bid prices for non-current positions and ask prices for
current positions), with no deduction of transaction costs.
If there is no active market for a financial instrument, fair value is established by using a valuation technique,
which can include:
• the use of recent transactions done at market conditions;
• reference to the current fair value of another instrument that is substantially the same;
• discounted cash flow analysis or other valuation models.
The fair value analysis of derivative instruments and other information on their valuation are given in the
paragraph, supplementary information on financial instruments, in this document.
Under IAS 39 the measurement of variations in the fair value alters according to the designation of the
derivative instrument (trading or hedge) and the nature of the risk covered (Fair Value Hedge or Cash Flow
Hedge).
For those contracts designated as held for trading, changes in fair value are recognised directly in profit or loss.
For those contracts that are a Fair Value Hedge, changes in fair value of the hedging instrument and of the
hedged item are recognised in profit or loss, independent of the valuation criteria adopted for the latter.
For Cash Flow Hedges, changes in fair value are recognised directly in equity if the hedging instrument is
determined to be an effective hedge whilst the portion determined as ineffective is recognised in profit or loss.
The changes recognised in comprehensive income are recycled to the income statement in the same financial
period or periods in which the hedged asset or liability affects profit or loss.
Purchase or sale of derivative instruments (for trading or hedge) is recognised at the transaction date.
Payables
Payables are recognised at their presumed settlement value, approximately the amortised cost. If expressed in
foreign currency, the values are determined using the exchange rate at the end of the reporting period.
Employee benefits
62
− Short-term benefits
Short-term employee benefits are charged to profit or loss in the period of service rendered by the employee.
− Defined benefit plans
The Group recognises certain benefits to its employees post-employment (TFR [Staff Termination Fund] for the
Italian companies of the Group and pension benefits for the foreign companies). These benefits fall into the
category of defined benefits, verifiable as to their existence and quantifiable as regards the amount payable but
uncertain as to when payment will be required. Under IAS 19, the liability is valued using the Projected Unit
Credit Method and calculated by independent actuaries. This method calculates the present value of the defined
benefit obligation that an employee will receive at the estimated date when the service rendered by the
employee ceases using actuarial assumptions (for example, the mortality rate, the turnover rate of personnel)
and financial assumptions (for example, the discount rate). The present value of the defined benefit obligation is
calculated annually by an external, independent actuary. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in full in
profit or loss in the year in which they are realised. The Group has not used the so-called “corridor” method for
recognising actuarial gains and losses.
The Italian Accounting Commission (OIC), with the document approved by the Executive Committee on 26
September 2007, referring to Appendix 1 of the Operating Guide of 2005 for the transition to International
Accounting Standards (IAS/IFRS), has given further indications, in addition to those in the original document,
concerning the calculation and disclosure of the staff termination fund (TFR) of employees of Italian companies
within the Group, following the new provisions of Law 296 of 27 December 2006 (the Finance Law 2007) and
of the relative enactment decree of the Ministry for Employment and Social Security No. 70 of 3 April 2007.
The OIC document does not alter the previous opinion on staff-leaving indemnities matured to 31 December
2006, which remain within the Company and are considered defined benefit plans. However, the new document
asserts that, to comply with IAS 19 for the accounting treatment of settlement or curtailment changes to the
post-employment plan, the staff leaving indemnity matured must be subject to a different calculation, which
results in a significant change due to the absence of the previous actuarial assumptions concerning salary
increases. In other words, the liability for staff-leaving indemnities that remain within the Company may no
longer be modified by subsequent events.
− Defined benefits plans
The Group participates in State defined contribution plans. The contributions paid fulfil the obligations of the
Group towards its employees. The contributions are costs recognised in the period in which the benefit is
earned.
Provisions for potential risks and charges, assets and liabilities
Provisions for risks and charges are probable liabilities where the amount and/or timing of the obligation derive
from a past event and where the fulfilment of that obligation will result in an outflow of financial resources.
Provisions are made exclusively for existing obligations, either legal or implicit, deriving from a past event
where at the date of the Statement of Financial Position a reliable estimate of the amount of the obligation can
63
be made. The amount provided represents the best estimate of the amount necessary to fulfil that obligation
made at the end of the reporting period. Provisions made are re-assessed at the end of each accounting period in
the year and adjusted to reflect the best current estimate.
Where settlement of the obligation is likely to be beyond the normal credit terms, the amount of the provision
represents the estimated value of the future obligation discounted to its present value.
Potential assets and liabilities are not entered in the Statement of Financial Position; however information is
provided for those of a material amount.
Income tax for the period
Current income taxes are determined on the basis of estimated taxable income for the financial year according to
the enacted legislation and at the tax rates payable at the end of the reporting period.
The tax rates and the tax rules used to calculate the tax charge are those enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period in the jurisdictions where the Group operates and where it generates taxable income.
Current taxes for transactions or events outside profit or loss are recognised outside profit or loss in other
comprehensive income consistent with the transaction or event to which they refer.
Deferred taxes are calculated for all temporary differences between the carrying values of assets and liabilities
and the fiscal valuation of assets and liabilities (the liability method). Deferred taxes are calculated using the tax
rates expected to apply when the temporary differences will be realised or settled.
Current and deferred taxes are shown in the Income Statement except where they refer to entries directly debited
or credited to the Statement of Comprehensive Income.
Deferred tax assets are recognised for taxable temporary differences and for carried forward tax losses and
credits if it is considered probable that there will be sufficient taxable profit against which the loss or credit
carryforwards can be utilised.
The carrying value of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the
extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profit will be available to allow the benefit of part or
all of the deferred tax asset to be utilised. Deferred tax assets are recognised for deductible timing differences
and for tax assets and liabilities carried forward to the extent that there is likely to be sufficient future taxable
income against which the deductible timing differences and tax assets and liabilities carried forward can be
used.
Guarantees and potential liabilities
These include guarantees and sureties given, as well as goods received on deposit for various reasons. They are
recognised at nominal value.
64
INCOME STATEMENT:
Revenues and expenses
Revenues are recognised and accounted for to the extent that the economic benefits are probable and the relative
amounts can be reliably estimated. Revenues deriving from the sale of an asset are recognised upon transfer of
the risks of ownership, usually under Incoterms rules.
Revenues for contract work are recognised according to the stage of completion of the contract, as illustrated
above.
Expenses are recognised on a similar basis to revenues and are always recognised on a time-proportion basis.
Financial revenues and expenses Financial revenues and expenses are recognised in profit or loss on a time-proportion basis and using the
effective interest method.
The interest on all financial instruments valued at amortised cost and interest-bearing financial assets classified
as available for sale is calculated using the effective interest method, which discounts the expected future cash
inflows expected over the life of a financial instrument or a shorter period if required, compared to the net
carrying value of the financial asset or liability. Interest received is recognised in financial income in profit or
loss.
Dividends
These are recognised in the financial year when the shareholders have the right to receive the payment, usually
the year in which the Shareholders’ Meeting decides on the dividend distribution.
Dividends distributed to shareholders are recognised as a liability in the Financial Statements of the year in
which the distribution is approved by the Shareholders’ Meeting.
Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is calculated by dividing the share of the Group’s economic result attributable to the
ordinary shareholders by the average weighted number of ordinary shares in issue, excluding any treasury
shares.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by taking the share of the profit or loss attributable to the shareholders
of the Parent Company and dividing it by the average weighted number of shares in issue, taking into account
all potential dilutive securities.
Translation of items in foreign currencies
Receivables and payables in currencies other than Euro are originally translated into Euro at the historical rates
prevailing at the date of the relative transactions.
Exchange rate differences realised on the payment of receivables or the settlement of payables in foreign
currencies are recognised immediately in profit or loss.
Assets and liabilities in currencies other than Euro, excluding tangible and intangible assets and investments, are
65
determined using the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period and any related exchange rate
gains or losses are recognised in profit or loss. Fixed-term currency contracts are used to cover the fluctuation
risk of foreign currencies. The foreign subsidiaries of Trevi S.p.A. prepare accounts in the currency of the main
economic area in which they operate (the functional currency). At the end of the reporting period, the amounts
of the financial statements expressed in local currencies are translated using the exchange rates at the end of the
reporting period published on the website of the Ufficio Italiano Cambi and any differences arising are
recognised in profit or loss.
Comment on accounting estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires Management to apply accounting principles
and methodologies that, in some cases, employ complex and subjective valuations and estimates. These are
based on past experience and assumptions, which are always considered reasonable and realistic given the
information available at the time. Given the joint document from the Bank of Italy/Consob/Isvap No. 2 of 6
February 2009, it is specified that estimates are based on the most recent information available to management
at the time the Financial Statements were prepared without undermining their reliability.
The application of these estimates and assumptions affects the figures in the Financial Statements - the
Statement of Financial Position, the Income Statement and the Statement of Cash Flows, as well as those given
as additional information. Actual results may differ from these estimates given the uncertainty surrounding the
assumptions and conditions on which the estimates are based.
Listed below are the items of the Financial Statements requiring the greatest degree of subjectivity on the part of
management in establishing estimates and for which any change in the conditions underlying the assumptions
used would have a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group:
• Impairment of fixed assets;
• Contract work in progress;
• Development costs;
• Deferred tax assets;
• Provisions for credit risks;
• Employee benefits;
• Provisions for risks and charges.
Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of any changes are recognised in profit or
loss for the period in which the change occurred.
Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations applied from 1 January 2015 or early application
thereof
From the start of 2015, the Group has applied the following new accounting standards, amendments and
interpretations reviewed by the IASB:
• IFRIC 21 - Levies. On 20 May 2013, the IASB published IFRIC 21 that provides guidance on when to
recognise a liability for a levy. It identifies the obligating event for the recognition of a liability as the
activity that triggers the payment of the levy in accordance with the relevant legislation. If an obligation
66
is triggered on reaching a minimum threshold, the liability is recognised when that minimum threshold
is reached. IFRIC 21 is applied on a retrospective basis. Application of this standard had no impact on
the Financial Statements of the Group.
• IFRS Annual Improvements Cycle 2011-2013: these introduced amendments to IFRS 3 – Business
Combinations, IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement and IAS 40 – Investment property as shown below.
IFRS 3 - Business Combinations
The amendment, to be applied prospectively, clarifies scope exceptions for joint ventures under IFRS 3,
(i) it excludes not only joint ventures but also joint arrangements; (ii) the scope exception only applies
to the financial statements of the joint venture or the joint operation itself. Since the Group has no joint
arrangements, this amendment had no effect on the Group or its subsidiaries.
IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement
The amendment, to be applied prospectively, clarifies that the portfolio exception under IFRS 13 applies
to all contracts within the scope of IAS 39 – Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement. The
Group does not use the portfolio exception under IFRS 13.
IAS 40 - Investment Property
Delineating the scope of ancillary services in IAS 40 for the classification of investment property and
owner-occupied property (for example, in property, plant and equipment) was unclear. The amendment,
to be applied prospectively, clarifies that judgement is needed to determine whether a transaction is
solely the acquisition of an investment property or whether it is the acquisition of a group of assets or a
business combination in the scope of IFRS 3 that includes an investment property. The judgement
should not be based on the description of ancillary services in IAS 40. This amendment had no impact
on the Group accounting methods.
New accounting standards and amendments not yet applied or early adopted by the Group
• IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments. On 12 November 2009, the IASB issued this standard. It was amended
first on 28 October 2010, then in the middle of December 2011 and finally on 24 July 2014. The
standard, effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, represents the first step in a
phased project to replace IAS 39 and introduce new classification and measurement requirements for
financial assets and liabilities and for their derecognition. IFRS 9 is built on a logical, single
classification and measurement approach for financial assets based on the business model for managing
the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the financial assets, which replaces
the many different classification categories of IAS 39. For financial liabilities the main change
introduced with IFRS 9 is the introduction of new requirements for the accounting and presentation of
changes in the fair value of a financial liability classified as a financial liability valued at fair value
through profit or loss when this is due to a change in the entity’s own credit risk. Under the new
standard these must be recognised in other comprehensive income rather than in profit or loss.
• IFRS 15 – Revenues from Contracts with Customers. On 28 May 2014, the IASB and the FASB jointly
issued IFRS 15, which aims to clarify the principles for recognising revenue from customers and supply
a single revenue recognition model to improve comparability across industries and capital markets and
67
simplify the recognition of transactions that are financially similar. IFRS 15 applies to an entity’s first
annual IFRS financial statements for periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 (early application is
permitted).
• Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 – Agriculture: Bearer Plants. On 30 June 2014 the IASB published
these amendments that change the financial reporting for biological assets that are bearer plants. The
amendments include them within the scope of IAS 16 instead of IAS 41. Subsequent to initial
recognition, bearer plants are recognised under IAS 16 at cost (before the produce growing on bearer
plants matures) and using either a cost model or a revaluation model (after the produce growing on
bearer plants has matured). The produce growing on bearer plants is a biological asset that must be
measured at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with IAS 41. Government grants related to bearer
plants no longer fall within the scope of IAS 41. Such grants should now be accounted for in accordance
with IAS 20 – Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government Assistance. The
amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier application
is permitted. Application of these amendments should have no impact on the Group as it owns no bearer
plants.
• IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 – Investment Entity Amendments: Applying the Consolidation Exception.
On 18 December 2014, the IASB published these amendments that address issues that arose in the
context of applying the consolidation exception for investment entities. They are effective for annual
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Early application is permitted.
The Group is evaluating the impact of the amendments and interpretations to the accounting standards that have
been approved but have not been applied early or are in the process of being approved by the European Union.
The Group has already begun to assess the possible impact of the application of the new accounting standards
IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments, IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 16 -Leases on its
economic, financial and capital position and on the disclosure required in the Consolidated Financial
Statements.
RISK MANAGEMENT
Aims, management strategies and identification of financial risks
The Finance Department of the Parent Company and the Finance Directors of each subsidiary manage the
financial risks to which the Group is exposed by following the guidelines of the Treasury Risks Policy of the
Group.
The financial assets of the Group are mainly cash and bank current accounts, trade and other receivables linked
directly to the operating activities.
The financial liabilities include bank financing and financial leases, which are primarily to finance the operating
activities and international development of the Group, as well as trade and other payables.
The risks associated with these financial instruments are interest rate risk and exchange rate risk (known as
market risk), liquidity risk and credit risk.
68
The TREVI Group constantly monitors the aforementioned financial risks, intervening, if necessary, also
through the use of derivative instruments, to reduce the risks to a minimum. Derivative instruments are used to
manage exchange rate risk on instruments denominated in currencies other than the Euro and to manage interest
rate risk on loans with floating rate interest.
The decision on the optimum debt structure between fixed-rate and floating-rate debt is taken at the consolidated
level by the Parent Company.
Risk management of interest rate and exchange rate risks is mainly carried out by the Parent Company and the
sub-holding companies.
Market risk
Market risk is the risk that the fair value of the future cash flows of a financial instrument changes due to
changes in the market price. The market price comprises four types of risk: interest rate risk, exchange rate risk,
commodity price risk and other price risks, such as equity risk. Financial instruments affected by market risk
include loans and financing, deposits, available for sale assets and financial derivatives.
The sensitivity analyses shown below refer to the position at 31 December 2015.
Interest rate risk
Exposure to fluctuations in interest rates is linked to current and non-current floating rate loans.
It is Group policy to make funding transactions at floating rates and then to decide whether to hedge the interest
rate risk by exchanging the floating rate exposure to a fixed rate exposure through derivative contracts. The
Group has Interest Rate Swaps whereby it agrees to exchange, at pre-determined intervals, the difference
between a fixed interest rate and a floating rate based on a pre-agreed notional principal amount.
On 1 July 2014, the Board of Directors of the Parent Company TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A.
authorised the structure and issue of the Minibond 2014-2019 for a total amount of Euro 50 million. The bond
carrying a fixed coupon was placed with investors.
At 31 December 2015, taking into account swap contracts, approximately 12% of Group debt was fixed rate.
31/12/2015
Fixed rate Floating rate Total
Loans and Financial leases 32,815 603,553 636,369 Bond loan 50,000 0 50,000 Total financial liabilities 82,815 603,553 686,369 % 12% 88% 100%

At 31 December 2015, the TREVI Group had two interest rate swap contracts with leading financial
counterparts that were exclusively to hedge existing transactions and were not taken out for speculative reasons.
At issue, the total notional value was Euro 40 million and at 31 December 2015 it was Euro 28 million expiring
in 2020.
69
At 31 December 2015, the fair value of these contracts was negative for Euro 1.536 million.
Sensitivity analyses using the trend in the Euribor reference rate was carried out on floating rate financial
liabilities and bank deposits to measure the interest rate risk at 31 December 2015. Details of these analyses are
given in the following table:
Interest rate risk Description (Euro ‘000) -50bps +50bps
Deposits and liquid assets (1,142) 1,142
Bank loans 2,973 (2,973)
Payables for other financing 336 (336)
TOTAL 2,167 (2,167)
The analyses showed that an increase in Euribor of 50 bps would, ceteris paribus, give an increase in
consolidated net financial expenses of approximately Euro 2.167 million.
Exchange rate risk
The Group is exposed to the risk inherent in movements in exchange rates as these affect the financial results of
the Group. Exchange rate risk exposure can be:
• Transaction-related: movements in the exchange rate between the date on which a financial
undertaking between counterparts becomes highly likely and/or certain or the date in which the
undertaking is settled; these movements cause a variation in expected and effective cash flows;
• Translation-related: movements in the exchange rate cause a variation in the figures of financial
statements expressed in currency when these are translated into the currency of the Parent Company
(Euro) in order to prepare the Consolidated Financial Statements. These movements do not cause an
immediate variation in the expected cash flows compared to the effective cash flows but have an
accounting effect on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group. The effect on the cash flows
is only manifest when transactions are carried out on the capital of companies within the Group which
prepare their accounts in foreign currencies.
The Group regularly assesses its exposure to exchange rate risks. It uses instruments that correlate the cash
flows and offset them in the same currency, advance commercial financing in the same currency as the sales
contract, forward selling of currency, and derivative instruments. The Group does not use speculative
instruments to cover exchange rate risk; where the derivative instruments do not meet the conditions required
for the accounting of hedging instruments under IAS 39, the changes in fair value are recognized in profit or
loss as financial income/expenses.
In particular, the Group manages transaction risk. Exposure to movements in exchange rates is due to its
activities in many countries and in currencies other than the Euro, in particular the US dollar and those
currencies linked to the US dollar. Since it has important operations in countries with US dollar-related
currencies, the Group can be significantly affected by movements in the Euro/US dollar exchange rate. In order
to protect itself from exchange rate movements, during the financial year under review, the Group wrote
numerous fixed-term call and put contracts with leading financial counterparts
At 31 December 2015 the Oil & Gas Division had exchange rate hedges totalling USD 8,500,000 expiring
70
during 2016 with a mark to market fair value that was negative for Euro 0.065 million. At 31 December 2015,
the Special Foundations Division had exchange rate hedges totalling USD 15,000,000 expiring during 2016 with
a mark to market net fair value that was positive for Euro 0.513 million.
The fair value of a fixed term contract is measured by taking the difference between the exchange rate at the end
of the contract and that of an opposite transaction but for the same amount and with the same expiry date, using
the exchange rate and the difference in interest rates at the end of the reporting period.
To assess the impact of movements in the Euro/US dollar exchange rate, sensitivity analyses were carried out
simulating likely variations in this exchange rate.
The entries in the Consolidated Financial Statements considered to be the most important for these analyses
were the following: trade receivables, intragroup receivables and payables, trade payables, debt, cash and cash
equivalents, and financial derivatives.
The sensitivity analyses were carried out on the values of these entries at 31 December 2015. The analyses
focused only on those items in US dollars and not those in the functional and presentation currency (the Euro),
in the individual financial statements included in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Assuming a 5% depreciation of the US dollar against the Euro, the impact on the profit before taxes, ceteris
paribus, would have been negative for approximately USD 5.931 million. Assuming a 5% appreciation of the
US dollar against the Euro, the impact on the profit before taxes, ceteris paribus, would have been positive for
approximately USD 5.931 million. This impact is mainly attributable to adjustments to intragroup trade-related
transactions, payables to and receivables from suppliers in foreign currency, and financial items in foreign
currency with third-parties.
Details of these analyses are given in the following table:
EUR/USD Exchange rate risk Description (USD/000) USD +5% USD -5% Trade receivables in foreign currency 3,938 (3,938) Intragroup receivables and payables 6,881 (6,881) Financial items to third parties 404 (404) Trade payables in foreign currency (5,403) 5,403 Hedging in foreign currency 110 (110) TOTAL 5,931 (5,931)
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that available financial resources will be inadequate to meet maturing obligations. At
the current date, the Group maintains that its cash flow from operations, the wide range of financial resources,
and the availability of credit lines in all the technical forms necessary for the execution of its business, are
sufficient to meet its budgeted financial requirements.
The Group controls liquidity risk by aiming at an appropriate mix of sources of financing for its various
companies, which permits the Group to maintain a balanced capital structure (financial debt/equity) and debt
structure (non-current debt/ current debt), as well as balancing the maturities of the debt financing. In addition to
the constant monitoring of liquidity, all the companies within the Group produce periodic statements of cash
flows and projections, which are consolidated and analysed by the Parent Company.
To ensure that its liquidity risk is sufficiently covered, the Group has committed credit lines arranged with
leading financial counterparts for a total of Euro 557.6 million. At the end of the financial period under review
71
many of these had not been used.
In addition to these credit lines and guarantees given, the Group had credit lines with leading financial
institutions in Italy and abroad for approximately Euro 787 million. The total credit lines available to the Group,
including the ceilings on factoring and leasing transactions, exceeded Euro 1,900 million.
The funding activity is mainly carried out by the Parent Company and by the sub-holding companies. Financing
is also negotiated by the individual operating companies in the Group for certain operational requirements. The
chart below shows the geographical distribution of liquidity available to the Group at 31 December 2015:

Credit risk
The Group is exposed to credit risk should a financial or commercial counterpart become insolvent.
The nature of the Group’s business, which covers several sectors, with a marked geographical spread of its
production units and the number of countries in which it sells its plant and equipment (approximately 80),
means it has no concentrated client or country risk. In fact, the credit risk is spread over a large number of
counterparts and clients.
The credit risk associated with normal commercial operations is monitored both by the company involved and
by the Group finance division.
The aim is to minimise the counterpart risk by maintaining exposure within limits consistent with the credit
rating given each counterpart by the various Credit Managers of the Group, based on the past history of the
insolvency rates of the clients.
Group revenues are mainly generated abroad and the Group uses market financial instruments to cover credit
risk, in particular letters of credit; for large projects it also uses advance payment instruments, letters of credit
and SACE S.p.A. (the Italian Export Credit Agency) insurance policies and buyers’ credits.
The Group also uses without recourse sales of trade receivables. A more in-depth analysis and statement of
exposure to credit risk of the commercial activities is given in Note 11 to the Financial Statements.
Credit risk on cash assets is inexistent since these are made up of cash and cash equivalents, bank current
accounts and post-office accounts.
INFORMATION ON DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS
For derivative instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value, IFRS 7 requires that
these values are classified according to a fair value hierarchy which reflects the significance of the inputs used
to determine the fair value. The fair value hierarchy is composed of three levels:
- Level 1: quoted prices for similar instruments;
- Level 2: directly observable market inputs other than Level 1 inputs;
- Level 3: inputs not based on observable market data.
The tables below show the assets and liabilities at 31 December 2014 and at 31 December 2013 classified
according to IAS 39.

Capital Management
The main objective of the Group in managing its own resources is to maintain a high credit rating and a correct
equity structure to support the core business and maximize shareholder value.
The resources available to the Group are managed according to the reference economic environment. The main
measurement used to monitor the financial structure is the debt/equity ratio. Net debt is calculated as the total
exposure to financial institutions less cash and cash equivalents and current financial receivables.
Net equity is all the components of capital and reserves.
At 31 December 2015, the carrying value of Group net equity, approximately Euro 565 million, was higher than
its market capitalisation of approximately Euro 302 million. This is not considered to be an indication of
impairment requiring an impairment loss to the carrying value of the invested capital of the Group as:
- at 31 December 2015, the Group carried out an impairment test using the forecast cash flows for the
period 2016-2018 implicit in the 2016 Budget, approved by the Board of Directors on 16 December
2015, and the 2017 and 2018 financial forecasts prepared by management with the support of a specific
advisor appointed for the task. These analyses were carried out using a range of assumptions that were
all subject to sensitivity analyses;
- the potential margins on the order portfolio of approximately Euro 949 million at the end of the
financial period under review are higher than those generated during the 2015 financial year;
- the geographical diversification of the business reduces the risk of fluctuations in any specific market;
over 90% of Group revenues are generated outside Italy.
Impairment test at 31 December 2015
Since the market capitalisation of the Company at 31 December 2015 was lower than its consolidated net equity
at the same date, the Group carried out an impairment test.
The carrying value of the Group assets or groups of assets comprising cash-generating units (CGUs) were
compared with their recoverable value, the higher of the fair value (less costs of disposal) and the present value
of the future cash flows expected to be derived from the assets or cash generating unit (value in use). This
method is based on the assumption that the value of the economic capital of an entity at a certain date (in this
case, 31 December 2015) is the sum of the following:
• the value of operations : the present value of the operating free cash flows generated by the operations
75
of the company over a given period of time;
• value of the non-strategic and non-operating assets at the reference date.
The impairments tests were carried out using the forecast cash flows for the period 2016-2018 implicit in the
2016 Budget, approved by the Board of Directors on 16 December 2015, and the 2017 and 2018 financial
forecasts prepared by management with the support of a specific advisor appointed for the task.
The targets and assumptions in the 2016 Budget and the financial forecasts for 2017-2018 were determined by
taking account of the historic results from operations and were calculated using the best available information at
the time the estimates were made given future expectations for the reference markets in which the Group
operates.
The aforementioned Budget and financial forecasts include estimates of volumes, investments, operating costs,
margins, industrial and commercial assets and for the trend in the main monetary variables. In particular, the
forecasts for the current financial year are for a material increase in profitability. In the medium-term or over
the period taken into consideration, management forecasts assume a gradual improvement in the drivers of the
sectors in which the Group mainly operates and, in particular, those of the Oil & Gas sector.
For the years after 2018, the cash flows were calculated using a terminal value that incorporated:
- the same financial and capital estimates as in the final year for which estimates were prepared;
- a growth rate, g, of 1% in line with the rate used in previous impairment tests.
It should be noted that:
(i) these targets and assumptions refer to the annual results that include the Group performance during the
course of the year and also take account of the historic trend in results generated during previous years;
(ii) these multi-year forecasts were prepared using targets that incorporate growth and improvement over the
historic results and, therefore, are characterised by uncertainty and might be considered challenging.
The operating cash flows, i.e. the available cash flows before repayment of debt and dividend distribution, were
discounted using a UDCF (Unlevered Discounted Cash Flow) at a WACC (Weighted Average Cost of Capital)
of 6.4%, which was calculated using the Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM). The variables in the calculation
were the following:
- Risk-free rate: 10-year IRS;
- Market risk premium (MRP): the Damodaran figure (Total Equity Risk Premium based on rating Italy)
that already incorporates country risk was used;
- Beta: a beta of 1.0 was used, in line with the beta used in previous impairment tests by the Group.
The variables in the calculation of the cost of debt were:
- 10-year IRS: the current fixed rate yield was used as described above;
- Spread: the average figure for non-current credit lines, which takes account of the current Group
leverage, was used;
76
- Tax Rate: the IRES tax rate was used.
The impairment test gave no indication of impairment as regards the carrying value of the consolidated net
assets in the 2015 financial year and, therefore, no impairment charges were taken against these assets.
The Group used four CGUs, corresponding to the four Group divisions, for the impairment test.
Management believes that changing the key assumptions used to estimate the cash flows would not cause a
reduction in the value of the consolidated net assets. Specifically, the results of the impairment test would not be
influenced should any of the key assumptions below occur:
- no increase in business volumes during 2016-2018;
- a decrease in the average gross operating margin to approximately 15%;
- an increase in the discount rate to approximately 8%;
- a fall in the growth rate g to 0%.
The impairment test showed that the carrying value of consolidated net assets is totally recoverable.

The increase of Euro 14.698 million mainly referred to capitalised costs for the development of special
foundations technologies and equipment used by Group companies; these costs, which meet the requirements of
IAS 38, were capitalised and subsequently amortised from the start of production and over the average
economic life of the equipment.
The net value of development costs at 31 December 2015 was Euro 67.132 million (Euro 26.106 million at 31
December 2014), with an increase in the period of Euro 10.950 million; recurring research and development
costs incurred in 2015 and charged to profit or loss were Euro 6.567 million, compared to Euro 7.181 million in
2014.
The gross increase in the entry for industrial patents and use of intellectual property was Euro 0.327 million and
was mainly attributable to capitalised costs for software license agreements.
The gross increase in the entry for concessions, licences and brands was Euro 0.596 million (Euro 0.353 million
in the previous financial year).
In the period under review there was no indication of impairment necessitating adjustments to the research and
development costs in the accounts; the best estimates for future cash flows were used for individual costs
calculated on the usefulness of the projects to which the costs referred based on the best information currently
available. The net present value of the cash flows was calculated using the same discount rates used for the
impairment test carried out on the Group.
Other intangible assets were Euro 3.100 million at 31 December 2015, a gross increase of Euro 1.890 million
compared to the previous financial year.
Impairment test on the carrying value of goodwill
Euro 6.001 million of goodwill was recognised for the acquisition of the subsidiary Watson Inc., finalised in the
2008 financial year. Under IAS 36, goodwill is not subject to amortisation but is subject to impairment testing at
least once a year or more frequently if there is any evidence of impairment. The goodwill is allocated to a cash-
generating unit or group of cash-generating units which is not larger than the operating segment determined in
accordance with IFRS 8. The criteria followed in allocating goodwill represent the lowest level within the entity
at which the goodwill is monitored for internal management purposes. The impairment test compares the
recoverable value of the cash-generating unit to which the goodwill is allocated with the carrying amount of its
79
operating assets. The recoverable value is the greater between the value in use (net present value of the expected
cash flows) and the fair value less cost to sell (net selling price). In the case in point, the recoverable value was
considered to be the value in use. The value in use was determined by discounting the operating cash flows,
which are the cash flows available before repayment of debt and dividend distribution (the Unlevered
Discounted Cash Flow method).
The cash flow assumptions used for 2016 were taken from the Budget approved by the Board of Directors,
which forecasts an increase in revenues and sales compared to 2015.
To calculate the cash flows for future years a CAGR in revenues of 8.86% was used for 2015-2018.
The net present value of the operating cash flows was prudently calculated using a WACC (weighted average
cost of capital) of 5.42% and a Beta of 1.2 was used to calculate the company cost of capital. The growth rate, g,
used for the terminal value was 1%.
The goodwill value of Euro 6.001 million resulted completely recoverable from the impairment test carried out
using the above parameters. Management considers that, given the size of the positive difference between the
value in use and the carrying value of the CGU (cash-generating unit), changing the key assumptions used to
estimate the cash flows would not result in the recoverable amount of the CGU being lower than the carrying
value.
(3) Investment property:
There was no investment in non-operating property in 2015.
(4) Investments:
Investments were Euro 1.800 million at 31 December 2015, an increase on the figure of Euro 1.287 million at
31 December 2014.
A summary of changes in investments in 2015 is given in the table below:

At 31 December 2015, the share premium reserve was Euro 227.766 million and was unchanged on the previous
financial year.
− Legal reserve: The legal reserve is the share of the net profit that pursuant to Article 2430 of the Italian Civil Code may not be
distributed as dividends. Compared to the figure at 31 December 2014, the legal reserve increased Euro 0.362
million following the allocation to this reserve of 5% of the profit for the 2014 financial year. At 31 December
2015 this reserve was Euro 7.990 million.
Other reserves:
This entry was made up of the following reserves:
− Fair value reserve: This reserve includes the changes in fair value of financial derivative instruments valued as cash flow hedges
under IAS 39.
− Extraordinary reserve: At 31 December 2015, the extraordinary reserve was Euro 13.244 million, a decrease of Euro 3.362 million
compared to the previous financial year.
− IFRS reserve:
The figure of Euro 13.838 million at 31 December 2015 included all the adjustments made for the transition to
IAS/IFRS accounting, which was initially adopted on 1 January 2004.
− Reserve for treasury shares:
The reserve for treasury shares was Euro 0.736 million, an increase of Euro 0.049 million compared to the
figure at 31 December 2014.
The amount of this reserve was the result of acquisitions and sales of the Company’s own shares made in 2015
using the authorisation granted by the Shareholders’ Meeting.
− Currency translation reserve: This was positive for Euro 52.976 million at 31 December 2015; it reflected the exchange rate differences
deriving from the translation of financial statements prepared in currencies other than the Euro. The appreciation
of the US dollar against the Euro during 2015 compared to 2014 increased this reserve by Euro 42.186 million.
− Retained earnings: This reserve comprises the profit or loss generated in previous financial years which has not been distributed as
dividends to shareholders and includes the profit for the year.

In addition to the financing described above, at 31 December 2015, the TREVI Group had significant loans
totalling Euro 185 million repayable in single amounts when the periods of the loans expire; these included the
Minibond 2014-2019.
Some of these loan agreements contain covenants that require adherence to certain financial ratios based on the
Consolidated Financial Statements as follows:
− Net Financial Position / EBITDA: an indicator of indebtedness, calculated as the ratio of net financial
indebtedness to EBITDA;
− Net Financial Position/ Shareholders’ Equity: an indicator of indebtedness, calculated as the ratio of net
financial indebtedness to shareholders’ equity.
The Minibond 2014-2019 carries a further financial covenant in addition to those above which is also measured
on the Consolidated Financial Statements:
− EBITDA/ Net Financial Expenses: an indicator of the weight of interest expenses calculated as the ratio
of EBITDA to net financial expenses.
Should the Company fail to respect these covenants, the loan agreements allow for a cure period; if the
Company’s failure to respect the covenants continues beyond the cure period, the banks that have granted the
loan can call in the loan or renegotiate its terms.
Due to the non-recurring circumstances, which had a material impact on the results of the first semester 2015
and also on the 2015 full-year results, the Group failed to respect one of the covenants in the loan agreements.
By 31 December 2015, the banks that had covenants in their agreements had communicated that they accepted
the Company’s request that its failure to respect one financial covenant (Net debt / EBITDA) should not be
89
considered a material event under the financing agreements and that the same ratio should be calculated at 30
June 2016 on a rolling basis, i.e. based on the cumulative results of the second semester 2015 and the first
semester 2016. The Group, therefore, maintained the classification of financial loans in the statement of
financial position with the expiry dates originally agreed.
The total amount due to leasing companies was Euro 53.011 million, which was the fair value as all the leasing
agreements are subject to interest at floating rates.
Other non-current financial liabilities were Euro 4.583 million and were mainly the residual payables for the
acquisition of non-controlling interests in some subsidiaries in South America and the Far East.
Non-current financial derivatives totalled Euro 1.504 million, a decrease of Euro 0.410 million compared to the
figure for the 2014 financial year. The entire figure at 31 December 2015 was the fair value of the interest rate
swap agreed by the Group and accounted as a cash flow hedge.
(16) Deferred tax liabilities and other non-current provisions
Tax liabilities for deferred taxes and provisions for risks and charges totalled Euro 69.701 million, an increase
of Euro 29.470 million compared to 31 December 2014.
Changes in the deferred tax provision are shown in the following table:
Balance at 31/12/2014 Provisions Uses Other Balance at 31/12/2015
Deferred tax provision 36,096 28,010 (2,636) 1,279 62,748
TOTAL 36,096 28,010 (2,636) 1,279 62,748
The deferred tax provision reflects the difference in the value of assets and liabilities in the Consolidated
Financial Statements and the corresponding values fiscally recognised by the jurisdictions in which the Group
operates. Details of the deferred tax provision are given in Note 5 to the Financial Statements.
The balance of other non-current provisions was Euro 6.952 million, an increase of Euro 2.817 million
compared to 31 December 2014. This balance was the result of the changes in 2015 shown below:
Description Balance at 31/12/2014 Provisions Uses Releases Other

TOTAL 4,135 20,886 (17,791) 0 (278) 6,952
The breakdown of other non-current provisions was as follows:
Description 31/12/2015 31/12/2014 change Provisions for contractual risks 0 0 0 Warranty reserve 5,137 2,592 2,545 Provision for losses from associates 742 742 0 Legal disputes 723 459 265
Other 349 342 7
TOTAL 6,952 4,135 2,816
The warranty reserve of Euro 5.137 million was provisions made for interventions under technical guarantees
90
given on engineering products of the Company.
The Euro 0.742 million provision for losses from associates refers entirely to the joint venture Rodio-Trevi-Arab
Contractor.
The provision for legal disputes totalled Euro 0.723 million and was Euro 0.146 million due to the subsidiary
Pilotes Trevi Sacims in Argentina; Euro 0.140 million to Trevi S.p.A.; Euro 0.070 million to Drillmec S.p.A.;
Euro 0.047 million to TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A; and Euro 0.320 million to Soilmec S.p.A..
This provision represents the best estimates of management for the liabilities required to be recognised and due
to:
− legal procedures arising from normal operations;
− legal procedures involving the tax authorities.
The item, other risk provisions, includes provisions made by the management for various probable liabilities
attributable to various Group companies and linked to the current difficult macroeconomic scenario.
(17) Potential liabilities
The nature of the Group business reduces the risks to which it is exposed since sales of equipment and services
are spread over hundreds of contracts each year. Expenses relating to existing or future legal procedures cannot
be estimated with certainty. It is possible that the outcome of such procedures entails expenses for which
provisions have not been made or which are not covered by insurance guarantees and, therefore, may have an
impact on the financial position and results of the Group. However, at 31 December 2015, the Group believed it
did not have potential liabilities in excess of the amounts included in the entry, other provisions, as it did not
believe that it would have to make any payments.
(18) Post-employment benefits
At 31 December 2015, the employee termination fund (TFR) and pension liabilities totalled Euro 21.225 million
and comprised the indemnities accrued at year-end by employees of Italian companies, as required by law, and
provisions made by foreign companies to cover accrued liabilities towards employees.
These were calculated as the present value of the defined benefit obligation adjusted for the actuarial gains and
losses and were determined by an independent external actuary using the projected unit credit actuarial costs
method.
Changes in the financial year are shown in the following table:
Description Balance at 31/12/2014 Provisions

Other changes in the pension funds were due to exchange rate translation effects deriving from foreign
subsidiaries.

The main actuarial assumptions were:
31/12/2015 31/12/2014 31/12/2013
Actualisation technical yearly rate 2.03% 1.5% 3.25% Annual inflation rate 1.75% 1.75% 2.0% Annual rate of total salary increases 2.50% 2.5% 2.5% Annual rate of increase in TFR 2.81% 2.81% 3.0%
A discount rate calculated on a basket of AA-rated corporate bonds (iBoxx Eurozone Corporates AA 10+ index)
was used for the actuarial calculations as recommended by the Association of Actuaries at 31 December 2015.
The other actuarial assumptions used were as follows:
- the State General Accounting Office (Ragioneria Generale dello Stato) RG48 gender adjusted
assumptions were used for the mortality rate;
- the gender adjusted assumptions in the INPS (Istituto Nazionale della Previdenza Sociale) model
for forecasts to 2010 were used for the disability rate;
- for retirement age it was assumed that active employees would stop working as soon as they reach
the minimum pensionable age or length of service in order to qualify for a pension from the
mandatory general insurance scheme;
- annual rates of between 2.5% and 15% were used for the probability of resignations for reasons
other than death and were based on Group figures;
- an annual rate of 2% was assumed for early retirements.

Payments due to clients:
The entry of Euro 35.590 million for payments due to clients was for contract work in progress net of advance
payments received. An analysis of every contract was carried out and, if there was a positive result (because the
contract work in progress was greater than the advance payments received), it was recognised under current
assets in the entry, trade receivables; if the result was negative, the figure was recognised in current liabilities in
the entry, other payables, as being due to the client.
Payables to associates:
Trade payables to associates were Euro 3.232 million and were almost entirely trade payables of the subsidiary
Trevi S.p.A. to various consortia. Further details on this figure are given in Note 35 on related party
transactions.

OPERATING REVENUES
(26) Revenues from sales and services and other revenues
Total revenues were Euro 1,342.302 million compared to Euro 1,250.699 million in 2014, an increase of Euro
91.603 million (+7.3%). The Group operates in various business sectors and geographical regions.

The increase in revenues from the Middle East and Asia was due to the subsidiaries in the Special Foundations
Division operating in these areas. Revenues from the United States confirmed the general trend of 2014 when
the completion of contracts in the Oil & Gas sector were replaced by contracts won by subsidiaries in the
Special Foundations Division. In Europe, there was a decline in revenues compared to the previous financial
year following the completion of some special foundations contracts in Northern Europe.
The growth in revenues in the Far East reflected strong performances from the companies in both the Special
Foundations and the Oil & Gas Divisions.

(36) Segment reporting
The Group has identified financial information by business division as the primary segment for disclosure of
further economic and financial information about the Group (segment reporting). This shows the organisation of
the business of the Group and the internal reporting structure since the risks and returns accruing to the Group
are affected by the sectors in which it operates.
The Management monitors the operating results of the business segments separately in order to take decisions
on the allocation of resources and to evaluate their performances. Segment performance is evaluated on
operating profit or loss, which, as shown in the tables below, is calculated differently from the operating profit
or loss shown in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Management monitors the revenues by geographical area as the secondary segment information; further
information is provided in the Notes to the Financial Statements.
Segment income statement and statement of financial position figures at 31 December 2015 are provided in the
following tables and further information on the performance of the two divisions is given in the Directors’
Report on Operations.

implemented in accordance with article 11, paragraph 3 of Legislative Decree n. 39, dated 27
January 2010. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and
perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial
statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's
professional judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the
consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments,
the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation of the consolidated financial
statements that give a true and fair view in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in
the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the
entity's internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by Directors, as well as evaluating the
overall presentation of the consolidated financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.

Opinion
In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the financial position
of Trevi Finanziaria Industriale Group as at 31 December 2015, and of its financial performance and
its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards
as adopted by the European Union and with article 9 of Legislative Decree n. 38, dated 28 February
2005.
Report on other legal and regulatory requirements
Opinion on the consistency of the Directors’ Report and of specific information of the Annual Report
on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure with the consolidated financial statements
We have performed the procedures required under audit standard SA Italia n. 720B in order to
express an opinion, as required by law, on the consistency of the Directors’ Report and of specific
information of the Annual Report on Corporate Governance and Ownership Structure as provided for
by article 123-bis, paragraph 4 of Legislative Decree n. 58, dated 24 February 1998, with the
consolidated financial statements. The Directors of Trevi Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. are responsible
for the preparation of the Directors’ Report and of the Annual Report on Corporate Governance and
Ownership Structure in accordance with the applicable laws and regulations. In our opinion the
Directors’ Report and the specific information of the Annual Report on Corporate Governance and
Ownership Structure are consistent with the consolidated financial statements of Trevi Finanziaria
Industriale Group as at 31 December 2015.

Dear shareholders,
During the financial year ended 31 December 2015, the Board of Statutory
Auditors has carried out the supervisory activities required by law,
complying with the recommendations and regulations of Consob and the
Standards of Conduct of Boards of Statutory Auditors of Companies Listed

Accountants and Tax Advisors.
The aforementioned supervisory activity was carried out in eleven meetings

Board of Directors and through the participation of the Chairperson and
other members of the Board of Statutory Auditors at the five meetings of
the Committee for Control and Risks, at meetings of the other internal
committees of the Board of Directors, as well as at meetings with the
independent audit firm and with the control bodies and management of the
Group companies.

The Board of Statutory Auditors currently in office was appointed by the
Shareholders’ Meeting of 29 April 2013 in accordance with the Company
Articles of Association updated for the amendments introduced by Law 12
July 2011 no. 120, Articles 147 ter, 147 quater and 148 and Legislative
Decree 24 February 1998 no. 58 regarding gender equality in the
administration and control bodies of listed companies.
Following the resignations of the Standing Statutory Auditor Ms Roberta
De Simone and the Supplementary Statutory Auditor Ms Silvia Caporali on
12 November 2014, the Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 January 2015, in
accordance with the requirements governing gender equality and non-
controlling interests, appointed Ms Milena Motta as a Standing Statutory
Auditor and Ms Valeria Vegni as Supplementary Auditor until the date of
approval of the Financial Statements at 31 December 2015.
At the date this Report was prepared, the members of the Board of Statutory
Auditors were as follows:

No member of the Board of Statutory Auditors exceeded the total number
of positions permitted under the Company Articles of Association and
Consob Listing Rule no.11971/1999.
On 28 July 2014, the Company issued a Euro 50,000,000 bond loan as
approved by the Board of Directors on 1 July 2014 to be traded on the
extraMoT PRO market of Borsa Italiana and the Monte Titoli settlement
system.
On 3 December 2015, the Meeting of the Bondholders of the “TREVI-
FINANZIARIA INDUSTRIALE S.P.A. 5.25% 2014-2019” bond approved
3
an amendment to the Loan Rules, which became effective following
ratification by the Board of Directors at its meeting of 16 December and
was entered in the Business Register on 17 December 2015.
The Board of Statutory Auditors was represented at the Shareholders’
Meetings and at the meetings of the Board of Directors in which the
Directors reported with the frequency required under paragraph 1 of Article
150 of Legislative Decree 58/98 (the Consolidated Finance Act) on the
activities of the Company and its subsidiaries and the most significant
economic, financial and capital transactions.
It was able to verify that transactions carried out did not go against the
decisions taken at Shareholders’ Meetings, complied with the law and with
the Company’s Articles of Association, did not create conflicts of interest
and were not obviously imprudent or risky or compromised the integrity of
the Company assets.
The Board considers the organisational structure of the Company to be
adequate for the size of the Company and the Group and capable of
providing a timely response to operating demands while respecting the
principles of correct and diligent management; the Board of Statutory
Auditors verified this through direct observation and by meetings with
Company executives and with the representatives of the audit firm, by
reviewing the results of the work carried out by the audit firm, through an
exchange of information with the internal audit committees of the
subsidiaries and regular meetings with the Manager responsible for
preparing the Company accounts, who is also the TREVI Group Director of
General Administration, Finance and Control.
The Board of Statutory Auditors has no remarks to make on this matter.
Furthermore, the Board of Statutory Auditors, in its role as the Internal
Control and Audit Committee under Article 19 of Legislative Decree 27
January 2010 no. 39, verified the correct preparation of financial
information, the adequacy and effectiveness of the internal control system
and its capacity to verify compliance with internal administrative and
operational procedures for the preparation of the consolidated accounts, and
4
those used to identify, prevent or manage risks of a financial and
operational nature and to detect any eventual fraud.
It verified the adequacy of the instructions given to subsidiaries under
Article 114, paragraph 2 of Legislative Decree 58/98.
No information or matters of significance that need to be included in the
present Report emerged from these verifications.
The Board of Statutory Auditors declares that on 9 October 2015 it
communicated to Consob, in compliance with Consob communication no.
6031329 of 7 April 2006, the “summary table of the activities of control”
for the 2014 financial year, using the relative model provided by Consob.
On 13 November 2014, the Directors Mr Guglielmo Antonio Claudio
Moscato and Mr Cristiano Schena resigned; the Board of Directors at their
meeting on 14 November 2014 co-opted Mr Guido Rivolta and Mr Umberto
della Sala as non-executive Directors to replace them in accordance with
Article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code and convened a Shareholders’
Meeting for 15 January 2015 to appoint a new Board of Directors as all the
Directors expressed their intention to resign from the date of the
Shareholders’ Meeting in order to appoint a new Board following the entry
as shareholders of Fondo Strategico Italiano S.p.A. and FSI Investimenti
S.p.A., both with significant shareholdings.
The Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 January 2015, on the proposal of the
outgoing Board, increased the number of members on the Board of
Directors from nine to eleven and appointed the new Directors, who will
remain in office until the approval of the Shareholders’ Meeting convened
to approve the Financial Statements at 31 December 2017 and who are
listed below. Five of the Directors are executive Directors, five are non-
executive independent Directors and there is one non-executive Director:
Davide Trevisani – Chairman and Managing Director
Gianluigi Trevisani – Executive Deputy Chairman
Cesare Trevisani – Deputy Chairman (executive)
Stefano Trevisani - Director (executive)
5
Simone Trevisani - Director (executive)
Monica Mondardini - Director (non-executive independent)
Cristina Finocchi Mahne - Director (non-executive independent)
Umberto della Sala - Director (non-executive independent)
Guido Rivolta - Director (non-executive)
Gaudiana Giusti - Director (non-executive independent)
Rita Rolli - Director (non-executive independent)
The Board of Statutory Auditors verified that the statements accepting the
appointments to the Board, declaring an absence of conflict of interests with
the Company, an absence of reasons that would make any Director
ineligible or unsuitable for the office assumed, and the declaration from
each Director that he/she possesses the necessary professional requirements
and those of good standing were all deposited at the registered office of the
Company.
The Board of Statutory Auditors also monitored that the procedures had
been correctly followed and verified the adequacy of the criteria used by the
Board of Directors to assess the independence of its members.
On 15 January 2015, the Board of Directors appointed Ms Monica
Mondardini as the Lead Independent Director and confirmed the
appointment of the Director, Gianluigi Trevisani, as head of the internal
audit and risk management system.
The Director Ms Gaudiana Giusti resigned effective from 14 May 2015 and
the Board of Directors at its meeting on the same day of 14 May 2015
replaced the outgoing Director and co-opted to the Board of Directors, in
accordance with Article 2386 of the Italian Civil Code and having received
a favourable opinion from the Committee for Appointments and
Remuneration, as an independent non-executive Director Ms Marta Dassù
until the next Shareholders’ Meeting; therefore the Shareholders’ Meeting
convened on 13 May 2016 must appoint a Director to the Board of
Directors.
6
The Board of Statutory Auditors verified that the statement accepting the
appointment to the Board, declaring an absence of conflict of interests with
the Company, an absence of reasons that would make the co-opted Director
ineligible or unsuitable for the office assumed, and the declaration that she
possesses the necessary professional requirements and those of good
standing was deposited at the registered office of the Company.
The remuneration given to the Directors is shown in the Explanatory Notes
to the Financial Statements.
Since 2013, the Company, having noted the opinion of the Board of
Statutory Auditors, has had an Internal Audit department; the Manager of
the internal audit function answers directly to the Board of Directors and is
not responsible for any operating area within the Company; this Manager
uses the services provided by Baker Tilly Revisa S.p.A. to carry out his
internal control duties. Following comparisons that emerged during
meetings of the Board of Statutory Auditors and the Committee for Control
and Risks, certain areas of action were identified that would help implement
and improve the internal control system.
On 16 October 2014, the Board of Directors approved a decision to adhere
to the July 2014 edition of the Self-Regulatory Code of Borsa Italiana
prepared by the Corporate Governance Committee of Borsa Italiana; it has
been in force throughout the 2015 financial year.
Following the appointment of the new Board of Directors on 15 January
2015, on the same date the Board of Directors appointed the new members
of the Committee for Control and Risks; these are Ms Monica Mondardini
(Chairperson), Ms Cristina Finocchi Mahne (member), and Ms Rita Rolli
(member). They will remain in office until the Shareholders’ Meeting
convened to approve the Financial Statements at 31 December 2017.
The Board of Statutory Auditors has worked closely and had a continuous
exchange of information with the Committee for Control and Risks.
The Chairman of the Board of Statutory Auditors and/or one or more
members of the Board of Statutory Auditors attended all five of the
meetings of the Committee for Control and Risks.
7
On 15 January 2015, the Board of Directors appointed as members of the
Committee for Related-party Transactions the Directors Ms Rita Rolli
(Chairperson), Ms Cristina Finocchi Mahne (member), and Ms Monica
Mondardini (member); they will remain in office until the date of the
Shareholders’ Meeting convened to approve the Financial Statements at 31
December 2017.
The Board of Statutory Auditors oversaw observance of the related-party
procedures, as updated by the Board of Directors on 16 October 2014 in
compliance with the requirements of Article 2391 bis of the Italian Civil
Code and the Rule governing Related-party Transactions issued by Consob,
and attended the five meetings of this Committee.
The Board of Statutory Auditors found no atypical or unusual transactions
with Group companies, with third-parties or with related-parties in the 2015
financial year.
The Directors have reported on transactions with other Group companies
and on related-party transactions in the Directors’ Report on Operations;
those of a financial and commercial nature were all carried out at market
conditions on the basis of contractual agreements.
In the Directors’ Report on Operations, the Directors also indicated those
companies that are subject to direction and coordination by the Parent
Company and any transactions that took place with them.
Also on 15 January 2015, the newly appointed Board of Directors set up the
Committee for Appointments and Remuneration appointing the Directors
Ms Rita Rolli (Chairperson), Ms Cristina Finocchi Mahne (member), and
Mr Umberto della Sala (member), who will remain in office until the date
of the Shareholders’ Meeting convened to approve the Financial Statements
at 31 December 2017.
In accordance with Article 151, paragraphs 1 and 2, of Legislative Decree
58/98, the Board of Statutory Auditors had an exchange of information with
the Boards of Statutory Auditors of the directly controlled Italian
subsidiaries of TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A., concerning the
activities of these companies in the financial year.
8
The Board of Statutory Auditors exchanged information with the legal audit
firm in compliance with paragraph 3 of Article 150 of Legislative Decree
58/98; no matters requiring comment in the present Report emerged from
this exchange of information; on 8 April 2015, the audit firm supplied the
annual declaration of independence required under Article 17, paragraph 9,
letter a), of Legislative Decree no. 39/2010
The information provided by the Directors in their Report on Operations is
considered full and exhaustive and is consistent with the Financial
Statements and the Consolidated Financial Statements. In particular, it has
provided information on the causes of the poor Group results for the
financial year which are entirely attributable to the loss for the year
generated by the subsidiary DRILLMEC, which the Board of Directors has
described as “caused by unexpected and singular events ..... that could not
reasonably have been foreseen”.
The Directors’ Report on Operations lists the main risks to which the
Company and the Group are exposed and the Board of Statutory Auditors
considers these to be adequately classified and described.
Pursuant to Article 123 bis of the Consolidated Finance Act and the Self-
Regulatory Code of Conduct for listed companies published by Borsa
Italiana to which the Company adheres, the Directors have prepared a
separate Report on Corporate Governance and on the Company’s
Ownership Structure that gives a detailed description of the corporate
governance system, which the Board of Statutory Auditors maintains has
been adequately and properly prepared; the Report, approved by the Board
of Directors on 23 March 2016, together with the present Report are

The declarations of the Manager responsible for preparing the Company
accounts and of the Chief Executive Officer have been attached to both the
Parent Company Financial Statements and the Consolidated Financial
Statements pursuant to Article 154-bis of the Consolidated Finance Act.
The accounts of the Company were subject to a legal audit by the audit firm
Reconta Ernst & Young S.p.A., which, on 7 April 2016, issued statements
in accordance with Articles 14 and 16 of Legislative Decree 27 January
2010 no. 39 to the effect that the Financial Statements and the Consolidated
Financial Statements at 31 December 2015 give a true and fair
representation of the capital and financial situation, the financial
performance and cash flows of the Company and of the Group and are
transparent and conform to the regulations that govern their preparation and
that the Report on Operations accords with the Financial Statements and the
10
Consolidated Financial Statements. The audit statements make no
disclosures or mention of any irregularities.
In the course of meetings with the audit firm nothing emerged regarding the
checks carried out.
In the 2015 financial year and to the present date, the Board of Statutory
Auditors has received no notification under Article 2408 of the Italian Civil
Code and is not aware of any other revelations that should be included in
the present Report.
The Board of Statutory Auditors oversaw compliance with the Self-
Regulatory Code adopted by the Company, as required by the Code
published by the Corporate Governance Committee of Borsa Italiana S.p.A.
in the edition of July 2014. The Corporate Governance Committee of Borsa
Italiana S.p.A. published a new edition of the Self-regulatory Code in July
2015 and the Company is expected to adopt this version in the course of
2016.
The Code of Conduct for Internal Dealing, adopted in compliance with the
enactment in Italy of the directive on market abuse, resulted in six
communications in 2015 that were deposited and made publicly available
on the website of Borsa Italiana S.p.A, on the website of the Company, and
on the authorised storage system 1Info (www.1Info.it).
The Company has adopted a Code of Ethics, which is publicly available on

58/98.
The Company has adopted an organisational model that conforms with
Legislative Decree no. 231 of 2001. The Board of Statutory Auditors has

11
On 26 February 2016 the Board of Directors renewed the mandate of the
Supervisory Body appointed on 24 March 2015 until 31 December 2016.
The fully paid-up share capital of the Company is Euro 82,391,632.50,
made up of 164,783,265 ordinary shares each of nominal value Euro 0.50;
the share capital in the Financial Statements at 31 December 2015 is Euro
82,289,633.00 and is made up of 164,579.265 ordinary shares due to the
acquisition by the Company of 204,000 treasury shares.
In the 2015 financial year, the Board of Directors exercised the authority to
acquire and sell treasury shares given it by the Shareholders’ Meeting and
purchased 75,600 treasury shares with a total nominal value of Euro 37,800.
In compliance with Legislative Decree 39/2010, the Board of Statutory
Auditors verified the independence of the audit firm.
In the 2015 financial year, Ernst & Young Financial-Business Advisory
S.p.A., which belongs to the same group as the audit firm Reconta Ernst &
Young S.p.A., and Reconta Ernst & Young S.p.A. itself signed specific
consultancy agreements for the control model under Law 262/05 and for
other consultancy services of which further details have been given in the
Explanatory Notes to the Financial Statements.
Given the nature of these contracts and the relative remuneration, the Board
of Statutory Auditors does not believe there are any critical aspects
regarding the independence of Reconta Ernst & Young S.p.A.
The Board of Statutory Auditors has examined the Financial Statements for
the financial year to 31 December 2015, the Consolidated Financial
Statements and the Directors’ Report on Operations, and reports that:
1. Not having been requested to provide an analysis of the contents of the
Financial Statements, it has examined the general preparation of the
Parent Company and Consolidated Financial Statements and their overall
compliance with the laws governing their preparation and structure.
2. We have verified compliance with the legal regulations governing the
preparation of the Directors’ Report on Operations to ensure that it
adequately describes the economic, capital and financial situation and the
12
performance in the 2015 financial year, as well as the performance after
the end of the reporting period, of the Company and of its subsidiaries
and we have no specific remarks to make in this regard.
3. As far as we are aware, in preparing the Financial Statements the
Directors have adhered to the provisions of Article 2423, paragraph 4 of
the Italian Civil Code.
4. We have verified that the Financial Statements correspond to the facts
and to the information which came to our knowledge in the execution of
our duties and we have no observations to make in this regard.
5. The Shareholders’ Meeting to approve the Financial Statements at 31
December 2015 has been convened by the Board of Directors, having
received our favourable opinion, in accordance with Article 2364
paragraph 2 and as permitted under Article 13 of the Company Articles
of Association, after 120 days but within 180 days of the end of the
financial year in order to permit examination of the financial statements
of the companies it controls.
Given also the opinion of the legal audit firm regarding the accounts,
expressed in the relevant statements accompanying the Financial
Statements, we propose that the Shareholders’ Meeting approves the
Financial Statements for the year to 31 December 2015 and the allocation of
the profit for the year as proposed by the Directors.
In the course of these supervisory activities and on the basis of information
obtained from the audit firm, we have found no omissions, censurable acts
or irregularities or facts of any significance that need to be reported to the
regulatory bodies.
The mandate of the current Board of Statutory Auditors, appointed by the
Shareholders Meeting of 29 April 2013 and its numbers restored by the
Shareholders’ Meeting of 15 January 2015, expires with the approval of the
Financial Statements at 31 December 2015. The Shareholders’ Meeting

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AT 31 DECEMBER 20 15
Introduction
TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. (the “Company” or the “Parent Company”) is the holding company for the
industrial shareholdings of a Group that operates in the two following sectors:
• Foundation engineering services for civil works and infrastructure projects and construction of equipment for
special foundations (“Special Foundations – (the Core Business)”);
• Construction of drilling rigs for the extraction of hydrocarbons and water exploration and oil drilling services
(“Oil & Gas”).
These businesses are organised within the four main companies of the Group:
• Trevi S.p.A., which heads the sector of foundation engineering;
• Petreven S.p.A., which operates in the drilling sector providing oil drilling services;
• Soilmec S.p.A., which heads the relative Division manufacturing and marketing plant and equipment for
foundation engineering;
• Drillmec S.p.A., which manufactures and sells drilling equipment for the extraction of hydrocarbons and water
exploration.
The Group is also active in the sector of renewable energy, mainly wind energy, through the subsidiary Trevi Energy S.p.A.
TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A., controlled by Trevi Holding SE which, in turn, is controlled by I.F.I.T. S.r.l., has
been listed on the Milan stock exchange since July 1999.
These Financial Statements were approved and their publication authorised by the meeting of the Board of Directors on 23
March 2016. However, the Shareholders’ Meeting has the power to alter the Financial Statements as proposed by the
Board of Directors.
Information on the business areas in which the Group operates, on related party transactions and on events after the end of
the reporting period is given in the Directors’ Report on Operations.
Structure and contents of the Financial Statements
The Parent Company Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and ratified by the European
Commission with Article 6 of Ruling (EC) no. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and by the Council on 19 July 2002
in Legislative Decree of 28 February 2005 no. 38 and subsequent modifications and amendments, the relevant Consob
resolutions, and according to the relative IFRIC interpretive standards issued by the International Financial Reporting
Interpretation Committee and the earlier SIC issued by the Standing Interpretations Committee.
The section on valuation criteria gives the main international accounting standards used in preparing the Parent Company
Financial Statements at 31 December 2015.
The Parent Company Financial Statements at 31 December 2015 also give the figures for the financial year at 31 December
2014. The following classifications have been used:
− “Statement of Financial Position” for current/non-current entries;
− “Income Statement” by nature;
− “Statement of Comprehensive Income”, which, in addition to the profit for the year, includes all changes in equity
other than transactions with shareholders;
− “Statement of Cash Flows” prepared using the indirect method.
This classification gives information that best reflects the financial performance and the financial position of the Company.
The functional currency of the Company is the Euro.
128
Unless otherwise indicated, the tables in the present Financial Statements and the Notes to the Financial Statements are in
Euro units.
Accounting standards
Historical cost accounting has been used for all the assets and liabilities except for available for sale financial assets, held
for trading financial assets, and financial derivative instruments where fair value principles and the assumption of business
continuity have been applied.
Valuation criteria
The preparation of the Financial Statements requires the Directors to make subjective valuations, estimates and
assumptions which affect the values of revenues, costs, assets and liabilities and indications of potential liabilities at the
date of the Financial Statements. The main entries in the Financial Statements that have required the use of estimates are:
• pre-paid tax assets, in particular as regards the likelihood of them being off-set in the future;
• provisions for doubtful receivables and provisions for risks and costs;
• the main assumptions in the actuarial calculation of the staff-leaving indemnity fund (TFR) are the future
employee turnover rate and the discount rate.
The valuation criteria used for the Income Statement and the Statement of Financial Position entries are described below.
Property, plant and equipment
Property, plant and equipment are stated at their acquisition or production cost. The cost of acquisition or production
reflects the fair value of the price paid to purchase or produce the asset and all other direct costs sustained to bring the asset
to working condition. The capitalization of costs contingent on adding to, updating or improving assets for own use or in
use from third parties is only effected when these costs meet the requirement for them to be classified as a separate asset or
part of an asset.
Property, plant and equipment are carried at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and any impairment losses. The
depreciable value of each significant component of a fixed asset with a different useful life is divided on a straight line
basis over the expected useful life. The useful life by category of fixed assets is as follows:
CATEGORY OF FIXED ASSET RATE
Land Indefinite useful life
Industrial buildings 5% Fixtures and Fittings 12%
Electronic machinery 20%
Drilling and foundation equipment 7.50%
Generic equipment 10% Vehicles 18.75%
Various and smaller equipment 20%
129
The criteria for the depreciation rate used, the useful life and the residual value are calculated at least as often as the end of
each reporting period in order to take account of any significant changes.
The capitalized costs for improvements to third-party assets are recognised in the relevant fixed asset category and
depreciated for the shorter of either the residual length of the leasing contract or the residual useful life.
The carrying value of property, plant and equipment remains in the Statement of Financial Position as long as that value
can be recouped from their use. If there is any evidence that the net carrying value may not be recoverable, an impairment
test is carried out. Reversal of an impairment loss is only done if the reason for the original recognition of the impairment
no longer exists.
Leasing contracts
Financial leasing contracts are accounted for in accordance with IAS 17. This requires that:
• the cost of leased assets is recognised in fixed assets and is depreciated on a straight line basis for the estimated
useful life of the asset; there is a corresponding entry for financial payables towards the lessor for an amount
equal to the fair value of the leased asset;
• lease payments are recognised in such a way as to separate the financial element from the capital element,
considered as repayment of the outstanding liability to the lessor.
Leasing contracts where the lessor retains almost all the risks and rewards of the asset are classed as operating leases and
the lease payments are recognised as an expense in profit or loss over the lease term on a straight line basis.
Intangible assets
Intangible assets are recognised at the cost of acquisition or production. The cost of acquisition is the fair value of the cost
paid for the asset and all other direct costs sustained to bring the asset to working condition.
Other intangible assets, represented by industrial patents, intellectual property rights, concessions, licenses, similar rights,
and software are valued at cost net of accumulated depreciation, calculated on a straight line basis, for the estimated length
of their useful life, five years, barring any significant impairment. The criteria for depreciation, useful life and residual
value are examined and measured at least as often as the end of each reporting period in order to take account of any
significant changes, as required by IAS 38.
Investments in subsidiaries and associates
Subsidiaries are those companies in which TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. has the independent power to exercise
control over the management of the company and to obtain the benefits of its activities. Control is presumed to exist when
the Company holds, directly and indirectly, the majority of the voting rights exercisable in an ordinary shareholders’
meeting, including any potential voting rights deriving from convertible instruments.
Associate companies are those in which TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. exercises significant influence over the
management of the company but where it does not have operating control, including any potential voting rights deriving
from convertible instruments; it is deemed to have significant influence when TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A.
holds, directly and indirectly, more than 20% of the voting rights exercisable in an ordinary shareholders’ meeting.
Investments in subsidiaries and associates are valued at acquisition cost reduced by capital distribution or capital reserves
or for impairment following impairment tests. The figures are reversed in subsequent financial years if the reasons for the
impairment no longer exist.
All the companies listed in the relevant note to the accounts have been valued using the cost method in the Financial
Statements of TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A.
130
The carrying value of these investments is subject to impairments tests when there is any evidence that the carrying value
may not be recoverable.
Investments in other entities
Investments in other smaller entities for which no market values are available are recognised at cost less any eventual
impairment.
Impairment of assets
An asset is impaired when its carrying value is greater than its recoverable amount. At the end of each reporting period the
presence of any evidence that assets may be impaired is assessed. If there is any such evidence, the recoverable amounts are
calculated and any eventual impairment losses recognised in the accounts. For assets not yet available for use and assets
recognised during the current financial year, the impairment test is carried out at least annually independent of the presence
of any indications of impairment.
Financial assets and liabilities
Financial assets are classified as follows:
• Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss: financial assets acquired primarily with the intention of
generating a profit from short-term (not more than three months) price fluctuations or assets designated as such on
initial recognition;
• Held-to-maturity investments: investments in financial assets with fixed maturities and determinable or fixed
payments which the Company has the intention and capacity to hold to maturity;
• Loans and receivables: financial assets with fixed maturities and determinable or fixed payments, not listed on
active markets and different from those designated from initial recognition as financial assets at fair value through
profit and loss or as available for sale financial assets;
• Available-for-sale financial assets: financial assets other than those in the preceding paragraphs or those
designated as such on initial recognition.
The Company decides the designation of the financial assets at the moment of purchase; the initial recognition is the fair
value at the purchase date, including transaction costs; for purchase or sale date, the settlement date of the transaction is
intended.
After initial recognition, the financial assets at fair value through profit and loss and the available-for-sale financial assets
are measured at fair value; the held-to-maturity investments, as well as loans receivable and other financial receivables, are
measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method as required by IAS 39.
The gains and losses deriving from changes in fair value of the financial assets at fair value through profit and loss are
recognised in profit or loss. The unrealised gains and losses deriving from changes in the fair value of available for sale
financial assets are recognised in equity.
The fair value of financial assets is measured on the basis of listed offer prices or financial models. The fair value of
unlisted financial assets is estimated using valuation techniques appropriate to the characteristics of the issuer. Financial
assets for which the current value cannot be reliably determined are accounted for at cost less impairment
At the end of each reporting period the presence of any indications that assets may be impaired is assessed and any losses
are recognised in profit or loss.
Financial liabilities are initially recognised at the fair value of the sums raised, net of transaction costs, and subsequently
valued at amortised cost.
131
Trade receivables, financial receivables and other non-current financial assets
Receivables and other non-current financial assets are initially recognised at fair value and subsequently at amortised cost.
Single financial assets or groups of financial assets are regularly subject to impairment test to ascertain if there is any
objective evidence of impairment. If there is any indication of impairment it is recognised in profit or loss for the period.
Trade receivables and other current assets
Receivables due within the credit terms or which carry interest at market rates are not discounted but are recognised at
nominal value net of a provision for doubtful receivables so that their value is in line with their estimated realisable value.
Receivables are recognised at their estimated realisable value: this value approximates to amortised cost. If this is expressed
in foreign currency, it is translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period.
This entry also includes the share of costs and revenues spread over two or more financial years to reflect the time
proportion principle correctly.
Receivable sales with recourse and those without recourse, which under IAS 39 do not qualify to be excluded from assets
because the relative risks and benefits have not substantially been transferred, remain in the Statement of Financial Position
of the Company even if they have been legally transferred.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents are cash, bank current accounts, and highly liquid current financial investments (with an original
maturity of no more than one, two or three months), easily convertible into considerable sums of cash and subject to no
significant variation from fair value
Cash and cash equivalents are recognised at fair value.
For the Statement of Cash Flows, cash and cash equivalents comprise cash, bank current accounts, and other highly liquid
short-term financial assets with an original maturity of no more than three months, net of bank current account overdrafts.
The latter are included as financial payables in current payables in the Statement of Financial Position.
Shareholders’ equity
• Share capital
This entry is the subscribed and fully paid-up share capital; it is shown at nominal value. The acquisition of treasury stock,
valued at the consideration paid, including any related costs, is recognised as a change in equity and the nominal value of
the treasury stock is deducted from equity whilst the difference between the purchase cost and the nominal value of the
treasury stock is deducted from reserves.
• Treasury shares
Treasury shares are recognised in a specific reserve for the difference between the acquisition cost and the nominal value
deducted from equity. No gain/(loss) is recognised in profit or loss for the purchase, sale, issue or cancellation of treasury
shares.
• Fair value reserve
This entry includes changes in fair value, net of taxes, of items accounted at fair value recognised in equity.
• Other reserves
These comprise capital reserves with a specific destination: the legal reserve, the extraordinary reserve, and the bond
conversion reserve.
• Retained earnings (losses)including the profit (loss) for the period
This includes the part of the financial results of prior years that has not been distributed or taken to reserves and movements
from other equity reserves when the restrictions on these no longer exist. The result for the year is also included in this
132
entry.
Non-current and current financing
This is initially recognised at cost which at the date the financing is received is the fair value of the amount received net of
any transaction costs. Subsequently, financing is valued at amortised cost using the effective interest method.
Employee benefits
Defined benefit plans
The Company pays indemnities on termination of employment to its employees (TFR - staff termination indemnities).
These benefits fall into the category of defined benefits, verifiable as to their existence and quantifiable as regards the
amount payable but uncertain as to when payment will be required. In accordance with IAS 19, the liability is valued using
the projected unit credit method and calculated by independent actuaries. This method calculates the present value of the
defined benefit obligation that an employee will receive at the estimated date when the service rendered by the employee
ceases using actuarial assumptions (e.g. the mortality rate, the turnover rate of personnel) and financial assumptions (e.g.
the discount rate). The present value of the defined benefit obligation is calculated annually by an external, independent
actuary. Actuarial gains and losses are recognised in full in profit or loss in the year in which they are realised. The
Company has not used the so-called corridor method for recognising actuarial gains and losses.
Since 1 January 2007, the Finance Law and other enacted decrees have introduced changes to the rules governing the TFR.
In particular, the employee may choose whether to invest new TFR flows in a pension fund or leave them within the
Company.
A discount rate calculated on a basket of A-rated corporate bonds (iBoxx Eurozone Corporates A 10+ index) was used for
the actuarial calculations as recommended by the Association of Actuaries at 31 December 2015. At 31 December 2014,
the calculation used the iBoxx Eurozone Corporates AA 7 – 10 index.
133
Provision for risks and charges and assets and liabilities
The provision for risk and charges is for probable liabilities of uncertain amount and/or timing deriving from past events
where meeting the obligation would entail the use of financial resources. Provisions are made exclusively for an existing
obligation, legal or implicit, which requires the use of financial resources and if a reliable estimate of the obligation can be
made. The amount taken as a provision is the best estimate of the necessary cost to meet the obligation at the end of the
reporting period. The provisions made are reassessed at each end of the reporting period and adjusted to the best current
estimate.
Where the financial cost related to the obligation is deferred beyond the normal payment date and the effect of calculating
the net present value is significant, the amount of the provision is the current value of the future expected payments
required to meet the obligation.
Potential assets and liabilities are not recognised in the Statement of Financial Position; however, information is given on
those of a material amount.
Derivative instruments
The Company has adopted a Group Risk Policy. Recognition of changes in fair value differs according to the designation of
the derivative instrument (held for trading or hedge) and the nature of the risk covered (Fair Value Hedge or Cash Flow
Hedge).
For those contracts designated as held for trading, changes in fair value are recognised directly in profit or loss.
For those contracts like a Fair Value Hedge, changes in fair value of the hedging instrument and of the hedged item are
recognised in profit or loss, irrespective of the valuation criteria adopted for the latter.
For Cash Flow Hedges, changes in fair value are recognised directly in equity if the hedging instrument is held to be an
effective hedge whilst the portion held to be ineffective is recognised in profit or loss. The changes recognised in equity are
recycled to profit or loss in the same financial period or periods in which the hedged asset or liability affects profit or loss.
Purchase or sale of derivative instruments is recognised at the transaction date.
Revenues and expenses
Revenues are recognised at fair value for the amounts received or expected. Revenues are accounted for to the extent that
the economic benefits are probable and the relative amount, including any related expenses or future expenses, can be
reliably estimated.
Revenues deriving from the sale of an asset are recognised upon transfer of the risks of ownership, normally at the time of
shipping, at the fair value of the amounts received or expected, including any eventual discounts.
Revenues from services are recognised according to the percentage of completion, based on the work carried out.
Expenses are recognised on a similar basis to revenues and always recognised on a time-proportion basis.
Financial income and expenses are recognised in profit or loss on a time-proportion basis and using the effective interest
method.
Dividends are recognised in the financial year when the shareholders have the right to receive the payment.
Taxes
Taxes on profit for the year are calculated as the amount expected to be paid under the enacted tax laws.
Deferred and pre-paid taxes are calculated for the temporary differences between the carrying amounts in the Statement of
Financial Position and the corresponding tax base values and for the amount carried forward of unused tax losses or tax
credits, as long as it is probable that repayment (payment) reduces (increases) the future tax payments compared to the
134
amount which would have been attested if that repayment (payment) had had no fiscal implications. The fiscal effects of
operations or transactions are recognised either in profit or loss or directly in equity in the same way as the operations or
transactions that gave rise to the tax charge are recognised. Taxes not linked to profit are recognised in other operating
expenses.
From the 2006 financial year to the date of the present Report and renewable every three years, TREVI - Finanziaria
Industriale S.p.A. and almost all its directly and indirectly controlled Italian subsidiaries have chosen to opt for the National
Group Tax Regime under the provisions of Articles 117/129 of the Income Tax Consolidation Act (T.U.I.R.).
TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. acts as the consolidating company and calculates the taxable amount for the group
of companies that opted for the Group Tax Regime; these companies benefit from the possibility of offsetting taxable
income with tax losses carried forward in a single declaration. Each company under the National Group Tax Regime
transfers to the consolidating company the taxable amount (taxable income or tax losses). TREVI - Finanziaria Industriale
S.p.A. recognises a receivable for those companies that have taxable income, which is equal to the amount of IRES to be
paid. For those companies with tax losses, TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. recognises a payable equal to the IRES
amount for the loss, which is offset at the Group level.
Currency
The Financial Statements are prepared in Euro, which is the functional currency of the Parent Company.
Transactions in foreign currency are translated into the functional currency at the exchange rate of the day of the
transaction. Exchange rate gains or losses, deriving from the settlement of these transactions and from the conversion at the
end of the reporting period of financial receivables and payables expressed in foreign currencies, are recognised in profit or

Use of estimates
The preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements requires Management to apply accounting principles and
methodologies that, in some cases, employ complex and subjective valuations and estimates. These are based on past
experience and assumptions, which are always considered reasonable and realistic given the information available at the
time. In accordance with the joint document of the Bank of Italy/Consob/Isvap No. 2 of 6 February 2009, it is declared that
estimates are based on the most recent information available to management at the time the Financial Statements were
prepared and are not detrimental to the reliability of the Financial Statements.
Use of these estimates and assumptions affects the figures in the Financial Statements - the Statement of Financial Position,
the Income Statement and the Statement of Cash Flows - as well as those given as additional information. Actual results
may differ from these estimates given the uncertainty surrounding the assumptions and conditions on which the estimates
are based.
Listed below are the items of the Financial Statements requiring the greatest degree of subjectivity on the part of
Management in establishing estimates and, for which any change in the conditions underlying the assumptions made,
would have a significant impact on the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Group:
• Impairment of fixed assets;
• Contract work in progress;
• Development costs;
• Deferred tax assets;
• Provisions for doubtful receivables;
• Employee benefits;
• Provisions for risks and charges.
135
Estimates and assumptions are reviewed periodically and the effects of any changes are recognised in profit or loss in the
period in which the change occurred.
Consolidated Financial Statements
The present Financial Statements, the Consolidated Financial Statements, the Directors’ Report on Operations, the Report
on Corporate Governance and on the Company’s Ownership Structure, the Report on Remuneration and the reports of the
audit firm will be deposited at the registered office of the Company and will be publicly available on the Company website,
www.trevifin.com, at Borsa Italiana S.p.A. and at the Business Registry under the terms prescribed by law.
Accounting standards, amendments and interpretations applied from 1 January 2014 or early application thereof
From the start of 2015, the Company has applied the following new accounting standards, amendments and interpretations
reviewed by the IASB:
• IFRIC 21 - Levies. On 20 May 2013, the IASB published IFRIC 21 that provides guidance on when to recognise a
liability for a levy. It identifies the obligating event for the recognition of a liability as the activity that triggers the
payment of the levy in accordance with the relevant legislation. If an obligation is triggered on reaching a
minimum threshold, the liability is recognised when that minimum threshold is reached. IFRIC 21 is applied on a
retrospective basis. Application of this standard had no impact on the Financial Statements of the Company.
• IFRS Annual Improvements Cycle 2011-2013: these introduced amendments to IFRS 3 – Business Combinations,
IFRS 13 – Fair Value Measurement and IAS 40 – Investment property. The adoption of these amendments had no
significant impact on the economic, financial and capital position of the Company.
New accounting standards and amendments not yet applied or early adopted by the Company
• IFRS 9 – Financial Instruments. On 12 November 2009, the IASB issued this standard. It was amended first on 28
October 2010, then in the middle of December 2011 and finally on 24 July 2014. The standard, effective for
annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018, represents the first step in a phased project to replace IAS 39
and introduce new classification and measurement requirements for financial assets and liabilities and for their
derecognition. IFRS 9 is built on a logical, single classification and measurement approach for financial assets
based on the business model for managing the financial assets and the contractual cash flow characteristics of the
financial assets, which replaces the many different classification categories of IAS 39. For financial liabilities the
main change introduced with IFRS 9 is the introduction of new requirements for the accounting and presentation
of changes in the fair value of a financial liability classified as a financial liability valued at fair value through
profit or loss when this is due to a change in the entity’s own credit risk. Under the new standard these must be
recognised in other comprehensive income rather than in profit or loss.
• IFRS 15 – Revenues from Contracts with Customers. On 28 May 2014, the IASB and the FASB jointly issued
IFRS 15, which aims to clarify the principles for recognising revenue from customers and supply a single revenue
recognition model to improve comparability across industries and capital markets and simplify the recognition of
transactions that are financially similar. IFRS 15 applies to an entity’s first annual IFRS financial statements for
periods beginning on or after 1 January 2017 (early application is permitted).
• Amendments to IAS 16 and IAS 41 – Agriculture: Bearer Plants. On 30 June 2014 the IASB published these
amendments that change the financial reporting for biological assets that are bearer plants. The amendments
include them within the scope of IAS 16 instead of IAS 41. Subsequent to initial recognition, bearer plants are
recognised under IAS 16 at cost (before the produce growing on bearer plants matures) and using either a cost
model or a revaluation model (after the produce growing on bearer plants has matured). The produce growing on
136
bearer plants is a biological asset that must be measured at fair value less costs to sell in accordance with IAS 41.
Government grants related to bearer plants no longer fall within the scope of IAS 41. Such grants should now be
accounted for in accordance with IAS 20 – Accounting for Government Grants and Disclosure of Government
Assistance. The amendments are applicable for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2016. Earlier
application is permitted. Application of these amendments should have no impact on the Company as it owns no
bearer plants.
• IFRS 10, IFRS 12 and IAS 28 – Investment Entity Amendments: Applying the Consolidation Exception. On 18
December 2014, the IASB published these amendments that address issues that arose in the context of applying
the consolidation exception for investment entities. They are effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1
January 2016. Early application is permitted.
The Company is evaluating the impact of the amendments and interpretations to the accounting standards that have been
approved but have not been applied early or are in the process of being approved by the European Union. The Company
has already begun to assess the possible impact of the application of the new accounting standards IFRS 9 – Financial
Instruments, IFRS 15 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers and IFRS 16 - Leases on its economic, financial and
capital position and on the disclosure required in the Financial Statements.

Risk management
Aims, management and identification of financial risks
The Finance Department of the Parent Company manages the financial risks to which the Company is exposed following
the guidelines laid down in the Treasury Risks Policy, approved by the Board of Directors.
The financial assets of the Company are mainly cash and current deposits and are linked directly to the operating activities.
The financial liabilities include financing from banks and leasing agreements are primarily to finance operating activities
and international growth.
The risks associated with these financial instruments are interest rate, exchange rate, liquidity and credit risk.
The Company constantly monitors the aforementioned financial risks, intervening, if necessary, also through the use of
derivative instruments, to reduce the risks to a minimum. The aim of the hedging activity of the Company is to manage
exchange rate risk on instruments in currencies other than the Euro and to manage interest rate risk on financing with
floating rate interest.
Decisions regarding the optimum structure of debt and the division between fixed rate and floating rate debt are taken by
the Company at the consolidated level.
The paragraphs below give sensitivity analyses that measure the impact of potential scenarios on some of the risks to which
the Company is exposed.
Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk is linked to floating rate current and non-current financing.
It is Group policy to conclude floating rate financing agreements and then evaluate the need to cover the interest rate risk
by exchanging the exposure to a floating rate to one with a fixed rate. To do this it has taken out Interest Rate Swaps
whereby the Group agrees to exchange, at pre-fixed intervals, the difference between the fixed rate and a floating rate
calculated on a pre-determined notional capital.
On 1 July 2014, the Board of Directors of the Parent Company TREVI – Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A. authorised the
structure and issue of the bond known as the “Minibond 2014-2019” for a total amount of Euro 50 million. The bond has a
fixed coupon and was placed with investors.
At 31 December 2015, taking into account the effect of these contracts, approximately 29% of the Company financing was
fixed rate.

At 31 December 2015, the Company had two Interest Rate Swap contracts agreed with leading financial counterparts
exclusively to cover existing transactions and with no speculative aim. At issue, the total notional value was Euro 40
million and at 31 December 2015 it was Euro 28.00 million expiring in 2020.

At 31 December 2015, the fair value of these contracts was negative for Euro 1.536 million.
Sensitivity analyses using the trend in the Euribor reference rate were carried out on floating rate financial liabilities and
bank deposits to measure the interest rate risk at 31 December 2015.
These analyses showed that an increase in Euribor of 50 bps would, ceteris paribus, give an increase in net financial
expenses of approximately Euro 1.005 million and a 50bps decrease in Euribor would, ceteris paribus, give a decrease in
net financial costs of Euro 1.005 million.
Details of these analyses are given in the following table:
Interest rate risk
Euro ‘000 -50 bps +50 bps Bank deposits and liquid assets (2,414) 2,414 Bank loans 1,359 (1,359) Payables for other financing 50 (50) TOTAL (1,005) 1,005
Exchange rate risk
The Company is exposed to the risk inherent in fluctuations in exchange rates as these affect its financial results. The
Company’s exchange rate exposure is transaction related deriving from movements in exchange rates occurring between
when a financial undertaking with counterparts becomes highly likely and/or certain and the settlement date of the
undertaking; these movements cause a variation between the expected cash flows and the effective cash flows.
The Company regularly assesses its exposure to exchange rate risks; the instruments it uses are instruments that correlate
the cash flows in foreign currency but with a contrasting positive or negative sign, financing contracts in foreign currencies,
and forward sales of currency and derivative instruments.
The Company does not use speculative instruments to cover its exchange rate risk; where the derivative instruments do not
meet the conditions required for the accounting of derivative instruments under IAS 39, the changes in their fair value are
recognised in profit or loss as financial income/expenses.
The Company manages transaction-related risk as described above. The exchange rate risk exposure is mainly due to the
intragroup relations of the Company. Its main exchange rate risk is to the US dollar and those currencies linked to the US
dollar.
The fair value of a fixed term contract is calculated taking the difference between the exchange rate at the end of the
contract and that of an opposite transaction for the same amount and with the same expiry date, estimated using the
exchange rate and the difference with the interest rate prevailing at the end of the reporting period.
To assess the impact of movements in the Euro/US dollar exchange rate, sensitivity analyses of likely movements in this
exchange rate were carried out.
The accounting entries considered most important for these analyses were the following: trade receivables, intragroup
receivables and payables, trade payables, financial debt, cash and cash equivalents and financial derivatives.
The sensitivity analyses were carried out on the values of these entries at 31 December 2015.
The analyses focused on those items in currencies other than the Euro.
Assuming a 5% depreciation of the US dollar against the Euro, the impact on profit before taxes, ceteris paribus, would be
140
negative for approximately USD 1.525 million.
Assuming a 5% appreciation of the US dollar against the Euro, the impact on profit before taxes, ceteris paribus, would be
positive for approximately USD 1.525 million.
This impact is mainly attributable to changes in intragroup trade-related transactions
Details of these analyses are given in the following table:
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that available financial resources will be inadequate to meet maturing obligations. At the current
date, the Company maintains that its cash flow generation, its wide range of financial resources and the availability of
credit lines in all the technical forms necessary for the execution of its business, are sufficient to meet its budgeted financial
requirements.
The Company controls liquidity risk by sourcing an appropriate mix of financing in the various companies, which permits
it to maintain a balanced Group capital structure (financial debt/equity) and debt structure (non-current debt/current debt),
as well as balancing the maturities of its debt financing and the diversity of the sources of financing. In addition to the
constant monitoring of the liquidity situation, the Company produces periodic cash flow statements and projections, which
are consolidated and become part of a wider analysis by the Company.
At year-end, the Company’s bank loans were divided between current and non-current financing as follows:
Current bank loans Non-current bank loans
31/12/2015 31/12/2014 change 31/12/2015 31/12/2014 change
Total 91,881,474 96,935,554 -5,054,080 Total 292,790,057 185,504,657 107,285,401
The value of non-current loans in the Statement of Financial Position equates to its fair value as the entire debt carries
interest at floating rates.
Total financial liabilities, including not only bank loans but also financial derivative liabilities, financial leases, and
payables for other financing are given in the following tables:
Current financial liabilities Non-current financial liabilities

Additional information on derivative instruments
For derivative instruments recognised in the Statement of Financial Position at fair value, IFRS 7 requires that these values
are classified according to a fair value hierarchy which reflects the significance of the inputs used to determine the fair
value. The fair value hierarchy is composed of three levels:
- Level 1: quoted prices for similar instruments;
- Level 2: directly observable market inputs other than Level 1 inputs;
- Level 3: inputs not based on observable market data.
The tables below show the assets and liabilities at 31 December 2015 and 31 December 2014 classified according to IAS
39.

Capital Management
The main objective of the Company in managing its own financial resources is to maintain a high credit rating and a correct
equity structure to support the core business and maximize shareholder value.
The resources available to the Company are managed according to the reference economic environment. The main
measurement used to monitor the financial structure is the debt/equity ratio. Net debt is calculated as the total exposure to
financial institutions less cash and cash equivalents and current financial receivables.
Net equity is all the components of capital and reserves.
Receivables
In accordance with IFRS 7, an analysis of the trend in past due receivables, grouped into similar risk categories, is given
below:

Receivables of Euro 22.167 million were almost entirely trade receivables from subsidiary companies for financial
transactions and services rendered; receivables from related-parties were Euro 0.032 million; VAT receivables were Euro
5.157 million and other receivables were Euro 0.126 million. This entry does not include receivables arising from the
consolidated tax regime, which were Euro 5.659 million, or accruals of Euro 1.329 million. To classify receivables as past
due, the conditions in the terms of payment were used and amended for any subsequent agreements between the parties;
those receivables shown as past due were also regulated by agreements between the parties.
All the receivables were found to be in the standard monitoring category with none falling into the special monitoring
categories.

The entry, land and buildings, refers to the value of the industrial site at Gariga di Podenzano (Piacenza), the location of the
manufacturing activities of the subsidiary Drillmec S.p.A., and to the value of land and buildings in Via Larga in the
locality of Pievesestina (Forlì-Cesena), adjacent to the manufacturing facility of Soilmec S.p.A. and Trevi S.p.A.
The gross increase of Euro 8.171 million in land and buildings reflects the property lease signed in July 2015 for an
industrial unit with offices, services, an apartment for the security guard, and an outside area located in the Municipality of
Podenzano (Piacenza) – at I Casoni di Gariga, via Copernico no. 6/8, which has been rented to the subsidiary Drillmec
S.p.A.
The gross increase in plant and machinery of Euro 7.625 million was due to the purchase of machinery on the expiry of a
lease contract that was subsequently sold to the subsidiary Trevi S.p.A. The entry also reflects lease-back agreements for
the purchase/ sale of hydraulic drilling equipment to leasing companies that was subsequently hired out to foreign
subsidiaries.
The decrease of Euro 4.293 million in the entry plant and machinery refers to the lease-back agreements described above.
The net carrying value of leased plant and equipment at 31 December 2015 was Euro 13.892 million (Euro 4.448 million in
2014).
(2) Intangible assets
At 31 December 2015, intangible assets were Euro 0.206 million and had increased by Euro 0.017 million compared to the

Among directly held investments, there was an increase in the investment in the subsidiary Drillmec S.p.A., the company
that manufactures and sells drilling equipment for the extraction of hydrocarbons and water exploration. This was due to
the payment on account for the future share capital increase of Euro 90.000 million approved by the company in the period
under review; the funds will be used to support the company’s business and will strengthen its capital position enabling it to
subscribe to future capital increases of its subsidiary Drillmec Inc. (USA).
The increase in the investment in the subsidiary Trevi Energy S.p.A., a company operating in the sector of research,
development and energy generation from renewable sources, primarily wind power, was due to a payment on account of
future share capital increases of Euro 0.450 million to support the activities of the company and, in particular, the
acquisition of licences for the production of wind energy.
The balance of other investments was Euro 0.151 million, an increase of Euro 0.150 million; in the 2015 financial year the
Company, as approved by the Board of Directors, subscribed to 1,500 shares in the newly constituted company Sviluppo
Imprese Romagna S.p.A., which has been set up to develop and promote entrepreneurship and small enterprises in Emilia
Romagna.
The remaining balance was for the 0.69% investment in Comex S.r.l., a company assembling own-label hardware products
(personal computers, notebooks and servers), which is in liquidation. At the date of the present Financial Statements, the
2015 Financial Statements of Comex S.r.l. had not been approved.
146
The Company has forty shares in Banca di Cesena S.c.a.r.l., each of nominal value Euro 25.82, and equal to 0.01% of the
bank. The carrying value of this investment is Euro 0.001 million.
Banca di Cesena S.c.a.r.l. has yet to approve its 2015 Financial Statements; those for 2014 showed net profit of Euro 1.014
million.
A list of subsidiary companies at 31 December 2015 and the key figures of these investments is given in the table below.
The carrying values of Drillmec S.p.A., Soilmec S.p.A., and Trevi Energy S.p.A. included payments made for future share
capital increases.
The carrying value of Trevi S.p.A. in the table below is higher than its total net equity. The subsidiary Trevi S.p.A. heads
the Special Foundations Services Division and provides operating and financial support to its Italian and foreign
subsidiaries. It is worth noting that the consolidated carrying value of the net equity of the Special Foundations Division
more than justifies the difference between the net equity value and the carrying value as shown in the table below.
The carrying value of Trevi Energy S.p.A. is also higher than its net equity. Trevi Energy S.p.A. is a start-up initiative with
many costs, the benefits of which will only materialise over a period of years. An impairment test on the carrying value of
the company justified the difference between the carrying value and that of net equity.
Impairment tests were carried out on the carrying value of the main investments and, in particular, those with a carrying
value higher than the value of their net equity.

81.815 million repayable in single amounts when the loans expire; these included the Minibond 2014-2019.
153
Some of these loan agreements contain covenants which require adherence to certain financial ratios based on the
Consolidated Financial Statements as follows:
− Net Financial Position / EBITDA: an indicator of indebtedness, calculated as the ratio of net financial
indebtedness to EBITDA;
− Net Financial Position/ Shareholders’ Equity: an indicator of indebtedness, calculated as the ratio of net financial
indebtedness to shareholders’ equity.
The Minibond 2014-2019 carries a further financial covenant in addition to those above which is also measured on the
Consolidated Financial Statements:
− EBITDA/ Net Financial Expenses: an indicator of the weight of interest expenses calculated as the ratio of
EBITDA to net financial expenses.
Should the Company fail to respect these covenants, the loan agreements allow for a cure period; if the Company’s failure
to respect the covenants continues beyond the cure period, the banks that have granted the loan can call in the loan or
renegotiate its terms.
Due to the non-recurring circumstances which had a significant impact on the results of the first semester 2015 and also on
the full-year results, the Group failed to respect one of the covenants in the loan agreements. By 31 December 2015, the
banks that had covenants in their agreements had communicated that they accepted the Company’s request that its failure to
respect one financial covenant (Net debt / EBITDA) should not be considered a material event under the financing
agreements and that the same ratio should be calculated at 30 June 2016 on a rolling basis, i.e. based on the cumulative
results of the second semester 2015 and the first semester 2016. The Group, therefore, maintained the classification of
financial loans in the statement of financial position with the expiry dates originally agreed.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR’S REPORT
IN ACCORDANCE WITH ARTICLES 14 AND 16 OF LEGISLATIVE DECREE N. 39, DATED 27
JANUARY 2010
(Translation from the original Italian text) To the Shareholders of Trevi Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A.
Report on the financial statements
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of Trevi Finanziaria Industriale S.p.A., which
comprise the statement of financial position as at 31 December 2015, the income statement, the
statement of comprehensive income, the statement of changes in net equity, the cash flow
statement for the year then ended, and a summary of significant accounting policies and other
explanatory notes.
Directors’ responsibility for the financial statements
The Directors are responsible for the preparation of these financial statements that give a true and
fair view in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards as adopted by the European
Union as well as with the regulations issued to implement art. 9 of Legislative Decree n. 38, dated 28
February 2005.
Auditor's responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We
conducted our audit in accordance with International Standards on Auditing (ISA Italia) implemented
in accordance with article 11, paragraph 3 of Legislative Decree n. 39, dated 27 January 2010. Those
standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures
in the financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's professional judgment,
including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether
due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control
relevant to the entity's preparation of the financial statements that give a true and fair view in order
to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of
expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. An audit also includes
evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of accounting
estimates made by Directors, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial
statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis
for our audit opinion.
